Check out the following link to the Scoobyshop products, looks like exactly what you are after.

Of course, you could consider a de-cat downpipe - doesn't raise boost but offers faster Turbo spool up and more power / torque.

How do you reduce lag and gain power? Take out catalysts, replace downpipe, up-pipe, in some cases headers can help too - definitely worth porting the OEM ones if nothing else. If you're feeling ambitious, I think converting the TD05 turbo you will have to front entry, (a la Andy F) will also help lots
But the best way to more power and less lag - if you can afford it - is to get a bigger engine. 2.2 stroker kit, 2.5 conversion or the 3.3 from the SVX will fit to give lots of power and low down pull (Am I right in thinking Pat has done that?)

Thanks to all for you replies but I think I will go with Kempos idea first...appears to be the cheapest and could re-program chip myself, decat will be too much hassel when MOT due the car only does around 3000 miles a year...
cheers Kempo...will post the results for all you pre 97 owners.
