Default Driver's side exhaust is about 10 degrees hotter than passenger side.

Using a digital thermo device, I measured the exhaust pipe temp at the mufflers. Driver's side is 10 degrees hotter. At idle driver = 205 vs passenger = 195.
Up front at the manifolds 230 driver vs 220 passenger. Ideas or this normal?

Default

Perhaps a dirty injector/bad wire(sparkplug or o2 wire)/bad plug could cause a variation in thermals like that. It's close enough to not be anything but...it would likely be something along those lines.
