Frankie:

There are three starters listed for the 986 Boxster: 20 986 604 104 00 Starter 1 1,2 KW (20) A 996 604 104 00 Starter 1,8 KW 1 M 249 (20) 996 604 103 00 Starter 1 M 249 M 198

The "M 249" designation is for Tiptronic 986's, so it looks like the correct starter is the 1.2KW unit, part number 986 604 104 00

Regards, Maurice.
