Wot box is temporarily fouling plugs.

I installed a wot box into my 2012 MT82 coyote to help with launching consistently at the drag strip this year. I've experienced temporarily fouled spark plugs for a minute or two after using the 2-step function occasionally. I'm considering tightening the spark plug gap by .010-.015 and see if that will be an easier gap for the spark to jump across while using the 2-step function, what do you guys think? I'm not dead set determined to use the box, but simply pressing the gas all the way down, and watching the x-mas tree will be easier than doing the same while trying to keep my launch rpm's within a range at the same time. The wot shift function doesn't seem to foul the plugs as easily, and really isn't needed as I can powershift this thing pretty consistently through fourth gear most of the time without it.

What plugs? I run Brisk silver racing and have never fouled a plug with my WOTBOX. I think I'm at .032

I think I have a weak coil pack because the same cylinder always goes out. I took out all of the plugs which all looked good, and the gaps were all around .055, I took them all down to .040" and the mis-fire code that wasn't random moved from cylinder 4, to cylinder 7, as I'm sure most of the plugs and coil-packs got moved to different cylinders when I re-gapped the plugs. I reset the ecu, and when I get the new CEL, I'll move the known weak cylinder's coil pack to another cylinder and see if the mis-fire moves to that cylinder with no other change.

Factory Autolites I believe, they say iridium on them as well.
