That can't be solved in programming, that problem is purely physical. We are limited in terms of valve orifice size and working pressure as well as the number of valves we can use per cylinder port (one, max). The only remaining way to do what you want to do would be either to use a spring assist, at which point the cylinder would actually slow you down, which isn't good, or you could use multiple small cylinders each fed off of its own solenoid valve.
