I would not remove the helper spring... I just installed it properly on my friend's 77 911 and he felt like I gave him a new car. The spring when adjusted properly makes the pedal a LOT more civilized. It is something that was added by Porsche just before 77 to remedy to a too heavy clutch pedal.
Make sure that the adjustment is done properly according to spec (1.2mm without the cable attached down to 1mm play with the cable adjusted properly) and that the stops at the pedal have been set properly both on the floor and on the floor plate. I think that you are supposed to have 25.4mm of travel all this is measured as per Wayne's 101 projects for your 911. Also, make sure that the spring is installed the proper way... I have seen the spring installed the wrong way (by a Porsche shop) and it made the clutch horrible.
Good luck!
Once everything is adjusted properly, it should be relatively easy to push down but it will definitely have the snappy feel that others have described...
