updated chain tensioners

Has anyone gone and changed out their chain tensioners for the updated spring loaded type?

I would think that the spring load would be a great feature to mitigate chain lash on start up, before oil pressure builds up.

It seems Porsche has issued a TB regarding retro fit of the older tensioners; I am confused as to why this might be. Is there a dimensional, or stroke mismatch which is the issue?






...wanted to get this done while the oil is out
