Spark plugs are a prime suspect. Gap can erode to 0.035+ in 10k miles and you will get hesitation and boost issues. Regap to 0.024 or replace plugs. Also check the distributor rotor. if resistance between tip and center contact is not 1000 ohms, the rotor could have burned though. If you aren't using Bougicord wires, that's another possible source. Check electrical plugs to APC box and solenoid for cleanliness and tight connections. Your AMM might be going as well, but I would rule out the vacuum/boost hose issues(check hoses under dash to boost gauge and pressure transducer) mentioned by the other post and the tune-up issues above first. Your turbo is probably fine since you did not mention smoking or impeller screeching.
