Power Check on Constant Speed Props

Hi Guys!

I used to be a big fan of doing a static rpm check just before brake release on my previous aircraft (small engine on TBO extension vs short field).

I have now a new aircraft with CS prop. What can I do now as a check that the engine is producing full power?

At about half throttle I already have full RPM. And the MAP indication is merely an indication that the valve itself is wide open but doesn't say anything about the power produced.
