Message I am talking about while the motor is in, and the car is drivable. I know I can look for oil leakage on the turbo itself, but apart from that, would it be mounting a boost gauge on each bank and verifying boost levels individually?

Currently I have a boost gauge at the front of the car on the intakes and a boost gauge on the plenum. They both generally match up but I am concerned that one of my turbos is working double time to make up for the other one not doing so well.

I guess another option is adding another wideband on that bank since now I only have one on my DS pipe, but are AF ratios a good indicator of turbo health?

Are there any other little tricks or tests to verify individual turbo integrity while they are still in the car and the car is running?
