[s-cars] Identifying Bad Coil

I alluded to an ignition problem in my previous email (which
apparently no one read :) ). Under high boost (23+ psi) one of the
coils appears that it fails to generate a good spark. Obviously, this
is causing me much grief to resolve.
Does anyone have any suggestions to how to find the bad coil? I tried
pulling injectors and doing a hard run, but, the ECU throws a fault
when the injector is pulled and boost is limited to the mechanical
wastegate spring.
Any other suggestions? I will probably try to swap out an entire coil
cover with someone just to make sure that it is a coil problem, but,
from there, how do I find the individual trouble coil?
DISCLAIMER TO HEAD OF A STANDARD PIZZO SUGGESTION-- I am not going to
replace all 5 coils. I don't have Evo-type money. :-)
