Fast idle modules

Does anyone know if there is a fast idle potentiometer kit available for the '17 psd's? I had one on my older truck, was plug and play with an adjustable rpm.
I found this type but didn't realize the price was so high.........anything cheaper?

You can Just do the hi idle mod with an up fitter and instead of a resister for a certain RPM, use a potentiometer to adjust idle speed. The other alternative is use two switches, and have different resisters for different speeds. As long as you have the upfitter switches, this is relatively cheap and easy to do.

Are you running equipment off the PTO or just to get heating and cooling and warm up?

I thought about the upfitter mod, but really want a plug and play. Also, all of my switches are occupied.

Jim-Z,
You gotta change your avatar bro. So sorry but I can’t stand it anymore. When my bride or two daughters see me scrolling through posts that are meant to be informative, then you pop up...jeez.
Just in good taste,
