You have to edit the config file to do it. Find the lines for left_key and right_key and increase the magnitude of the first number.

IMO you'd be better off calibrating the controller since a big dead zone will make it less responsive.

Click Start, click Run, type joy.cpl in the Open box, and then click OK. In the Game Controllers window, click Gamepad, and then click Properties. Click the Settings tab, and then click Calibrate. Follow the steps in the Device Calibration Wizard. :D!
