Thanks for sharing the Mutican numbers and how too details that is a big help.
I am just learning how to work this GAP tool, so I need all the help I can get.
Thanks again.
I am trying the same GAP programming.
At first I thought it didn’t work, but after re-reading the instructions I realized it only leaves them open in dynamic mode.
I don’t like the firm ride in dynamic mode, So, I may get these plugs and try that,
I think it does really sound nice with the valves open.
‘Still not really loud, but nice low rumble.
I was not able to find that soft button, I was assuming soft button meant button would be added in the touch screen somewhere.
‘I could not seem to find it. Maybe that’s not what soft button means?
Anyone else play around with GAP settings and get them to stay open in all modes?

I shot a video short of my Defenders exhaust sound in dynamic mode with exhaust valves programmed to stay open in dynamic mode via the use of my GAP tool.

Did the soft button appear after using the Gap tool? Just got my v8 defender and ordered a GAP so I’m excited to get in there and try it once the tool arrives from Lucky8. Thanks!

MultiCAN-528 ActiveExhaust
Was "Active Exhaust Actuator fitted"
Changed to "Active Exhaust Actuator fitted & button fitted"

I am not looking through the dynamic pages to see if the soft button is now appearing. Regardless... I now have full time open exhaust valve.
