Can an 850 turbo be de-tuned? 850 1996

I have a 96 855 turbo that now will be used on occasion by a teenager in the family. The car is too much for a young driver and I have heard that there is a way to lower the turbo output by adjusting the wastegate so way. I want to keep the car (it's a nice platinum wagon) but think a turbo is too much for a young driver. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated?
