Default my cars finally been setup

Finally got my car setup and it made 139 bhp and 123lbft at 8psi with an panel filter and magnex I was told it was running lean.

Does it sound like its down on torque ?

I have done the general service bits and bobs. The operator said i would probably get another 10bhp if I changed the spark plugs and injectors.

The car has done 92K and as far as I am aware has had nothing done apart from a magnex exhaust and K&N panel filter.
