Honestly don't know but wish I knew, I'd stiffen it up too. I think it's soft cuz of the electronic throttle control setup (drive by wire for those who read car pamphlets religiously and somehow think this is a new technology).

If anything I'd assume the basic mechanism involves some sort of spring, in which case a stiffer one is the obvious answer.

Practice, use more toe and less foot. that would be my answer anyway.
