Umm... no?
Unless you have done some sort of conversion to the GX there are 2 parts of fuckall you can do to make it faster.

You cant put a 1999 WRX ECu into a 1997 GX. It wont plug in.
If you put a 1998 WRX ECU into a 1997 GX (Which im pretty sure will plug in). It probably wont work properly if at all. Assuming it even manages to start your engine, it will throw a CEL for the missing turbo components and sensors. Which would send the ECU into limp mode and cause a massive decrease in performance over the stock GX ECU. If you want to make your GX go faster. buy a 1998 WRX front cut and get a pro to swap the engine, g/box and wiring over. In the end, it would be much much better to simply save your dollars and sell the GX and buy a WRX.

what are the settings of the 99 ecu, like boost level etc etc etc

the MY99 from my understanding has slightly leaner mixtures and slightly advanced timing, nothing huge.
as for the gx->99wrx idea, even if it *did* work, it would be a horrible slug because there would be no timing in the tune at all, and no boost to make power
