Default Mild to wild question

So I installed the mild to wild and the exhaust will turn on and off in all modes except for sport and track. In sport and track there is no way to turn it off? It always remains on? (Loud). Is this correct?

Thanks!

Almost correct. In Track mode the exhaust valves still close under certain circumstances but it's hardly noticeable. The Mild to Wild is more noticeable in Tour because the valve is closed more often.

So I put my car in stealth mode and now it allows me to open and close the valves in sport and track mode using the mild to wild controller (which i programmed to the visor). Wasn’t allowing me to open and close when the car wasn’t in stealth mode.

Sounds like it's working.

Think of it this way. In mild, it puts the system back to stock. Quite in stealth and louder in Track. In wild, it's the same as pulling fuse 42. Loud all the time. And pulling fuse 42 is slightly louder than Track mode because the valves never close.
