The restrictor like above said is the silencer ring, there's no power addition when removed just more turbo whistle. The plugging of a line though would be the wastegate line and there's two options. Just block it off or install a boost elbow so you can have control over the amount of best.

Why is it you think it will destroy the turbo? Keep it under 35lbs and there won't be any problems. Or if you think you will forget like I said put a boost elbow on it.
