Easiest way is to install a pressure controller in the line between the wastegate actuator and the intake manifold. This restricts the wastegate starting to open until pressure reaches a high enough level to start leaking past the controller and cracking open the wastegate. Makes the wastegate operate in a more on/off fashion instead of starting to crack open as soon as boost starts to build.
