Each game has it's own options when it comes to modifying the operation of the Force Feedback. Some games have more options than others. You want to increase and/or decrease each available option for better optimization. Some options, such as Counter-steering assistance, may appear to be unrelated to Force Feedback but do actually affect it.

In case none of this is helpful, try reaching out to Thrustmaster Support directly.
