In web.php config file add the following code into components array:

'assetManager' => [
        'bundles' => [
            'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapPluginAsset' => [
                'js'=>[]
            ],
        ],
    ],

To be more comprehensive:

in order to disable Css (bootstrap.css):

'assetManager' => [
    'bundles' => [
        'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset' => [
            'css' => [],
        ],
    ],
],

in order to disable JS (bootstrap.js):

'assetManager' => [
    'bundles' => [
        'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapPluginAsset' => [
            'js'=>[]
        ],
    ],
],

in order to disable JQuery (jquery.js)

'assetManager' => [
    'bundles' => [
        'yii\web\JqueryAsset' => [
            'js'=>[]
        ],
    ],
],

In order to have all of them disabled:

'assetManager' => [
    'bundles' => [
        'yii\web\JqueryAsset' => [
            'js'=>[]
        ],
        'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapPluginAsset' => [
            'js'=>[]
        ],
        'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset' => [
            'css' => [],
        ],

    ],
],

UPDATE

As Soju mentioned in comments, another alternative way would be disabling these files in AppAsset class, which is located in ./assets/, then remove the following lines:

public $depends = [
   'yii\web\YiiAsset',              #REMOVE
   'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset',  #REMOVE
];

Why does this give me: Invalid Call – yii\base\InvalidCallException Setting read-only property: yii\web\Application::assetManager?
How would i achieve this in Yii v1.1.15?
No need to modify assetmanager for this... You juste have to modify app asset bundle...
Please note: Afaikt: If we don't want to have Yii 2 to load their Jquery version, removing 'yii\web\YiiAsset' will do nothing. Jquery will still load.
Make sure your assetManager array in components!@IvoRenkema

For anyone that gets "Invalid Call" errors you have to add Ali's answer to 'components' in $config variable in app/config/web.php E.g.

'components' => [
    'assetManager' => [
        'bundles' => [
            'yii\web\JqueryAsset' => [
                'js'=>[]
            ],
            'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapPluginAsset' => [
                'js'=>[]
            ],
            'yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset' => [
                'css' => []
            ]
        ]
    ],
    ...
],

This is true only for the basic template

On AppAsset.php file add this:

public function init()
{
    parent::init();
    // resetting BootstrapAsset to not load own css files
    \Yii::$app->assetManager->bundles['yii\\bootstrap\\BootstrapAsset'] = [
        'css' => [],
        'js' => []
    ];
}

This is a cleaner option, than changing config files and may be used to reset bootstrap from themes
where do I put that? inside the class AppAsset??
\Yii::$app->assetManager->bundles['yii\\bootstrap4\\BootstrapAsset'] = [ 'css' => [], 'js' => [] ];
