Systems are provided for detecting a change in performance of an engine component. In one example, a system includes a first pressure sensor of a first exhaust manifold coupled to a first subset of cylinders of an engine, a second pressure sensor of a second exhaust manifold coupled to a second subset of cylinders of the engine, a passage coupling the first exhaust manifold to an intake manifold, and a controller configured to detect a change in performance of any cylinder of the engine based on frequency content from the first pressure sensor and from the second pressure sensor during both a first mode where no exhaust gas from the first exhaust manifold is provided to the intake manifold, and during a second mode where all exhaust gas from the first exhaust manifold is provided to the intake manifold, and adjust an operating parameter responsive to the change in performance.
