Default Exhaust Valves Open at all times!

How do you keep the exhaust valves open at all times in an Audi RS5 MY 2013.
I know with some cars you can disable the flaps by pulling out a specific fuse.

Thanks in advance.

put car in sport mode and then shurt off. Go to truck and lift the cover over the battery. on the left hand side you will see a vacuum ball. You need to disconnect the line with the 90 degree bend and plug both the nipple on the vacuum ball and the line that was plugged into it. You can get a pack of vacuum line terminators at any auto parts store. The small one goes on the vacuum ball and a larger one goes over the end on=f the line you disconnected.

Flaps will remain open all the time now.

Works well, just make sure you do the correct one. It's located at 6 o clock below the vacuum ball....just to the left of the electrical plug. Thanks for the tip John D.
