Misfire
I've been having a constant battle with a misfire on cylinder 1. I've changed plugs and that didn't seem to help. I took the plug out and checked it and it looked fine, made sure that everything was buttoned down nice and tight. CEL didn't come on for a few days and then it's back on. The car seems to run fine and there is no noticable stumble or anything when the light decides to come on. I'm thinking about swapping out the coil pack with another cylinder and see if the misfire moves. Any other tips, ideas or comments you guys can come up with?

coil pack and to a lesser extent plug wire would seem like the next obvious choice, taken from audi experience coil packs go bad quite often

That's the next thing I plan on checking since it is going to be the easiest option. I've talked with Mastro and they've said that they haven't had any WRXs come in with bad coil packs as of yet, so we will see.
I'm also going to check my fuel filter and make sure it looks ok and if nothing happens with those two options I guess it will be time to start looking at the injector.

Swapped the coil packs around tonight, so we will see what that does. If that doesn't do it I may just go ahead and replace the fuel filter and look into some fule system cleaners before ripping shit apart to get to the #1 injector.
