Default Please help, Cylinder down on legacy GTB

Hi guys, new to the forum but would appreciate some help, i have a 1996 Legacy GTB twin turbo in, on tick over and when revved, there is one cylinder down!! it is the drivers rear cylinder. i have replaced the plugs put another coil pack on but still no joy, i have noticed however that the coilpack on that cyclinder is getting red hot, all others stay at a normal temp but that one you can't touch its really hot when running. i have changed the coolant temp sensor also. I am stuck, put this coil getting hot is really annoying me and must have something to do with it, its had two coils on that cyclinder now and both get really hot when its running so i can't be the coil??????????? please help
