Default Warm up

Hi all. I start my car and give it a minute before driving off but car feels quite sluggish and kind of feels like it holds back. I drive car off boost until car has warmed up, say 5 miles. If I leave car for 5 mins before driving off car feels a lot smoother. Car has been serviced with plugs, filter changes etc this year. Car is 1999 turbo 2000. No fault codes etc. Does anyone else's car feel like this?

It's probably just coming off of the cold start enrichening and, as it hasn't warmed up yet, is hesitant on the weaker mixture. I assume it feels ok once warmed up?
