Without doing any research, my gut says use the 911 transmission ECU since it is programmed for the transmission that you plan to use.

My gut also says that you should look at all of the electrical signals (inputs/outputs) between the Boxster engine ECU and the 996 transmission controller to make sure that all of the signals match up like they do in their respective cars.

There is a chance that the Boxster engine has some different signals than the 996 engine to/from the transmission. If not, then its plug and play. If so, you will have to figure out how to replicate the missing signals so it all works when you're done.
