Cobb AP and VFAD output

Quick question. Can the output that it normally used to actuate the VFAD solenoid be mapped to be called up based of a parameter other then engine speed using an Cobb AP map? I've removed my VFAD and since it's gone unused, I'd like to consider mapping it to vehicle speed and use that output to actuate a homebrew active aero, for example. Also, assuming it could be mapped to another parameter, is it's output adjustable or is it an on/off voltage source? Thanks!

Engine Speed, On Off only.

Ok, thought I'd check before going to the trouble of either capturing speed from the speedo sensor itself or setting a script to read the data stream. I'm sure I'll think of some engine speed dependent use for it, if anything it could be a poor mans shift light.
