You can override the flaps following the driving mode in the vehicle settings.
See page 5-42 in the manual.
On the center screen: Settings - Driving Mode - Engine Sound Management - Auto or Off
Auto follows the driver mode dial setting.
Off will leave the flaps open...mostly. There are still the flaps forward of the mufflers that do stuff mostly in 4-cyl mode. I leave mine in the off (open) all the time. I also notice that on some up shifts, I can hear something close until about 1700RPM the valves open. The driver mode does not affect this behavior for me, all modes behave the same in the 'off' position.

That isn't required on the C7, as it's controlled by the computer and mode setting.
