Apologies to you and the OP becsuse I think I may not know what I think I know. I've been through the Bentley (96-6) and can't find definitive information. I'm just relaying what I thought to be true based on years of reading the forums.
The Bentley states this:
"The electronic immobilizer codes and serial numbers are written to the engine control module (ECM) and immobilizer (alarm) module at the factory. The information is recorded in the vehicle master file. It is available to the legitimate vehicle owner or agent using the integrated Porsche trader processing system (IPAS).
If the control modules are changed, reenter the necessary code data using the PST2. Note that:
-The immobilizer (alarm) module can only be programmed once.
-The ECM can be reprogrammed repeatedly."
I take this to mean that the pill must stay with the immobilizer, but the transmitter can be changed as many times as needed.
Either way, if the OP orders a new key head and takes it to a dealer with a PST2, they can fix him up.
