Mini SPi running lean

I am looking to put a supercharger on my mini, so I had a leak down test done on it. It turned out great, but when I pulled the spark plugs I noticed they were a bit on the light side. Anyone know how to adjust these to make it more rich?

Also anyone seen the supercharger in action? Thank you.

There is no adjustments (sorry) As with any fuel injection, the amount of fuel shot into the cylinders is based on several sensors that inputs to the computer in which controls the amount of fuel thru the injector. With that said, I would check the fuel pressure first and then test each sensor to be sure it is within factory range. Now putting a superscharger on it, you are going to have to get the computer tuned for what it is going to need to make it run good. Hope this points you into a good direction.........
