Default LTFTs and VE tuning, does engine use an average?

Ok, I'm tuning my VE table using LTFTs.

Right now, my bank one is positive, and my bank two is negative. (about an 8% difference on average between the two).

Does the engine use an average of these numbers to decide what to do (add or reduce fuel), or is each bank truly independent?

On average, my LTFTs are slightly negative, but I don't want the engine dumping fuel on one side, and leaning on the other when I punch the gas.

Is there a way to tune each bank seperately?

I'd check for leaks anywhere infront of the O2's. 2~3% difference between the banks is acceptable. Any more and I'd say there's something going on.

Each bank is independent, you can usually see this while monitoring each banks injector pulse widths, the bank with the highest LT trim is reflected in that bank's inj PW being longer.
