I have seen examples of both quite often, even for the same exact sentence,
examples: おなべの中からボワっと／おなべの中からボワッと。 This is a lyric from おどるポンポコリン（Odoru
Ponpokorin)、A song for ちびまる子ちゃん（Chibi Maruko Chan) In most cases, the lyrics
are written with the first example, but I've also seen it as the second as
well, which is more common for other words, because in other songs (also for
ちびまる子ちゃん）、The lyrics were written like this: グッとグッとグッとグッと水飲む So which is more
common？

question
particle-と orthography adverbs kana onomatopoeia
After a Katakana word then "tto" are both Hiragana or Katakana acceptable for the Sokuon?
There is no prescriptive rule that covers where to end the katakana section
when you write mimetic words, interjections and slang words in katakana
(because they are colloquialisms anyway), so we don't have the "right" answer.
It mostly depends on personal interpretation: that whether you want katakana-
ify the concept or the word when you do, and where is the morphological
boundary in such set phrases. Multiple variations are often seen in ending -っ
and adj. -い as you suggested.

  * ヤバイ人間 / ヤバい人間
  * アレッ？ / アレっ？
  * ヒドッ！ / ヒドっ！

As for っ-ending mimetic words, you can see a weak tendency that the more
syllables before っ the less likely っ is in katakana. Especially it seems っ is
always in katakana when the word has only one syllable, such as グッと or カッと.
But it also takes specific prosodic constructions into account.

  * ガチャガチャっと > ガチャガチャッと
  * ガチャッガチャッと > ガチャッガチャっと
