running a gsr with JRSC, 6psi, fuel pressure at idle is at 45-47psi.
on the way home, i did a WOT pull, pulled into the driveway, turned the car off, pulled the plugs out.

running a tad rich, nothing bad though and the ground strap also tells me you are running a little too hot. What heat range are those plugs and what's your timing at? Overall they look OK though

they look fine for a boosted car.........plus they look fairly new so give the ground strap some more time to change colour.....

NGK's 7 heat range
not sure on what the timing is set at. i think it might be at 12 - 14 BTC. i am using the jackson racing Map controller as i just got the kit and installed it as is.
i turned the fuel pressure down to 42psi at idle with the hose on. taking the hose off, it goes up to about 50 or 52psi, don't remember.

you are supposed to set pressure always witht he hose off not on... could be why your rich.
i also detect a slight big of learnign at the top enmd becaue the tip of the plug (metal that sparks and you adjsut yes i forgot the exact name) looks a bit scortched and pitted signs of upper end leaning. I think that map may be wrong for you.
but this is my opinion. I'm not a big tuner guy.

yeah.. those plugs were fairly new when i took those pics.
the tips don't look like that anymore. they are a little blackish/brownish now.
