Off boost and very light boost, its runs perfect, so I,m thinking may not be MAF or Lamda?
I could be clutching at straws here, still dont really know enough about the turbo set up yet. The only other car I had with a Turbo was a mint S1 RST, but some git nicked it before I got the modding bug.

Won't be heat soak...heat soak would/may induce detonation if you nail it after sitting in traffic.
It won't cause the car to splutter etc... whilst stationary.
Coil pack's could be failing, do you get a check light as the 2001-2002 only require a couple of missfires to throw the missfire error code.
Off boost and light throttle won't use the MAF to control fuelling. So could still be MAF.
At light throttle/cruise/idle the lambda sensor is used.
A common sympton of failing MAF is poor on boost performance/feel and splutter when you come to a halt and the car returns to idle.
