No they don't sell them but they do show up for about $50 or less on ebay every couple of months.

Differences, Xguage & Fuel Cutoff detection I believe, along with being able to save a bunch of trips fuel economy info

The wiggle the fuel pedal thing is only going to have meaning if you have a scanguage and see what effect it has. For me it works best when the motor is cold, I rapidly wiggle it in and out 3 to 4 times a VERY Very small amount from idle then slide in to take off (my rpms only jump to maybe 1-1.2k while wiggling). My paticular truck takes off harder if I do this with less pedal, I am beginning to think it has something to do with my transmission as it likes to stay rather solidly stuck at low speeds for some reason. I also have found I can take off harder as compared to just sliding the pedal in around 20-30mph if I do that trick as well.

Cheers
