I am about to do this job today so I'll confirm later on but meanwhile...
Did you try T55 ? The T55 is included in some of the inexpensive kits from Harbor Freight. The bolts will be tight so get the 'impact' best quality they sell. And you'll need to make a tool to hold the flywheel in place.
If you are hunting for the tool online ,they are often called XZN or 12pt. spline.
I hope this helps you.

NO.

A Torx bit is a 6 pointed star.

A XZN or triple-square bit is a 12 pointed spline.

BOTH are used all over Boxsters.
