The speedo in most boxster/cayman implementations comes from the ABS system using the wheel speed sensors. So the trans has absolutely no provision to drive a speedometer.
I put a Cayman 6 speed into my car, and I use a GPS driven 911 speedo.
The thread for how to do this is here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=230296&hl=
Good luck.

Its electric inside the trans for the Audi 5spd.
What are you doing for ECU?
The 914 is cable driven.
