I did this Saturday and it's great! I settled on 4 washers too, which seems to have a perfect feel. I'm kind of surprised vw doesn't tune the pedal to be like this from the factory. I immediately noticed that I was shifting smoother, which surprised me because I thought I would need to get used to it at least a little bit.
Notes on the install: Make sure to get an anchor that is just the right size. I first tried an anchor that was slightly too large and it didn't really work, then when I found a slightly smaller one it worked perfectly. I was a bit concerned when screwing in that the anchor would just spin indefinitely and never tighten, but after about 10-15 turns and a bit of pressure it tightened right up and now feels super solid. Highly recommended DIY!
