In the 'Engine Management' settings, I have it selected to 'Track'.
Will I gain anything (ex. more exhaust sound) by pulling the fuse?
it won't change anything other than the almost non-existent times they close in Track mode. And below 1400 rpm's in 5th gear do you really care if they're closed anyway?
IMO a mild to wild switch is only useful if you are somebody that wants to constantly go back and forth between full loud and base camry sound.
Personally the only times I have ever wanted the valves closed was on a multiple hour highway drive where the deep sound just wears on you.
Probably came up 5 times total in the 6 years I've owned the car.
In the settings, I have the engine management sound set for 'Track', but I only drive in Sport & Touring modes.
I've noticed that the outer two exhaust trumpets get discolored, while the inner two do not. Is this normal?
Thanks
Yes.
I close mine when coming back from dinner at night in my neighborhood and also when I'm spending any amount of time on the freeway. We do that a lot around here.

If yes, which fuse gets pulled on a 2019?
Thanks
Only if you spend time running around town in 5th gear at low speeds. With the M7 setting Engine Sound Management to track will have the valves open all the time except in 5th gear below 1500 rpm. When I am driving my Z in 5th, I can hear the exhaust pop open when the tach shows 1500 or thereabouts. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 7th will be open all the time. That isn't even worth the effort of opening the hood, let alone opening the underhood electrical center.
