This should mostly be a ride height adjustment. If you want to change the stiffness of the spring, go to a heavier one.

Interesting. The point of the dual-spring system is it acts as a dual-rate spring system so that you can run a slightly softer spring in general, but on really big jolts to the system the heavier second spring absorbs some of the energy in a more controlled manner. By swapping out the heavier spring for the plastic collar you are effectively swapping the elasticity of the spring for the elasticity of the plastic.

Use the optional tube that comes with the kit above the big spring, and take away the little spring
