Thus some decide to change that map to more linear in ecu tune for finer partial throttle control. It should be requestable/tuneable by most tuners doing ecu tuning. By chance are cars of your buddies tuned?
Then there also might be issue of for whatever work disconnected battery or reflashed tune and ecu not yet relearned full pedal travel. One can google for "dead pedal fix". In short, after reasons that may have caused it, eg. disconnecting battery or reflashing, switch car to ON without starting engine, do few full press/release of throttle pedal, then switch Off, for ecu to relearn pedal travel. Then start engine and let it idle for 1min w/o touching throttle to relearn idle rpms. Then keep driving normally.

ive done this multiple times and no change has happened
