how do I know if my second turbo is dead?

i recently pulled off the intake and checked the turbine on my second turbo. It seems that there is a little play when I move it back and forth, and some oil seems to bedripping off it, but I still get 10-8-10 in 3rd.

but I only get 5 lbs of boost in 1st and maybe a little more in 2nd, but always full on 3rd, 4th and 5th...


is that normal? i have about 120K on these turbos

thanks!
