This sure is a strange request. But from a guy who did just the opposite, my suggestion would be to adjust the wastegate to a lower setting. The trouble is it will still be fast on the highway, which is where I get my tickets! If you remove the turbo, the compression is too low to be barely driveable. You could try an intake restrictor or block the gas pedal so it won't go to the floor.
