poor running

Does anyone have any ideas on why a MY93 will run fine off boost but is really poor on boost?

as soon as the boost comes on it seems to miss then pulls strongly to full boost. its really annoying

Not usre, but my '93 is quite jerky when you're on/off boost quickly - waiting to overtake for example. I put it down to the elderly ECU design.
If it's a serious miss though it might be something bigger

would the Boost solenoid cause it to be rough coming onto boost?

You haven't had the ECU reset have you? I did mine recently and its still erratic on boost as it advances the ignition. I didnt think it would take this long. Must be about 60 miles now.
