Anyone have the 3rd edition of Anderson's '911 performance Handbook' yet?

I've got the first 2 editions and was wondering if getting yet another would be worthwhile. I'd really like info on the 3.6 - the kind of info he has on the 3.2 and back, not just a paragraph or two...

Yes … and it is great. Totally new and much in color. Much improved index and even color tabs for sections.

There is greater parts identification and other major improvements.

It is also now 300+ pages.

There are again a few errors, mostly due to poor proof reading by the publisher and not from Bruce’s work.

This is a “must have” for everyone’s Porsche work, tinkering and enjoyment.

Best,
Grady

Is there a location for submitting typos or determining what typos/errors are known? Both for this book or for other books?

It's also about twice as thick as the 2nd edition, due to thicker paper and about 30 additional pages. A much nicer book all around.
