You need to have the NPP exhaust to have these options in the Settings.
The NPP exhaust has larger exhaust tips with valves in the outer ones.
To Check:
Go to Settings (gear icon) -> Driving Mode -> Engine Sound Management
If Engine Sound Management (ESM) exists as an option, you have NPP. Then you will have settings:
2014: Auto or Off
2015+: Stealth, Auto, Touring, Sport, Track
Off and Track ESM settings are equivalent. This keeps the NPP exhaust valves open as much as federal pass-by noise laws allow. So they will still close at times.
The whole fuse pull thing mentioned is for NPP equipped cars. This fuse #41 for 2014 and fuse #42 in 2015+ cars in the engine bay fuse box. Pulling this fuse prevents the NPP valves from ever closing, but it also disables controlling their functions from the ESM settings. This is why some have rigged up a switch (wired or wireless) to control the fuse.
So it sounds to me like I'd still want a simple "on/off" switch like the "Mild to Wild" to make easy changes between open and closed without going thru mode changes. Unlike others, with my current C6 NPP I frequently switch between the two modes.
