Wow is that ever a ridiculous reach. The fact that there is a spring within a spring simply offers the engineers an avenue for creating a progressive rate pedal - two different size springs of different sizes and rates that engage at different points in the travel offers a lot of tuning options. Changing the internal spring and ECU throttle mapping makes it possible to use the same assembly in a different model car that utilizes a different level of "perceived" performance.

Really? All coil springs used in this respect have progressive resistance. Also the springs in question seem to be set up to engage in unison, not at different points
The fact remains that the two springs are too weak for the application at hand, So, why is that when the two springs are supposed to rectify that?
Throttle mapping is irrelevant to this issue.
