Now you will love the cold start

I posted this today in the general forum but here is the right section.
Here is how I do cold start and it sounds freaking awesome.

1. Get in the car.
2. Start the car (not the engine)
3. Put it in sport.
4. A little throttle blip (with the car still off!!!) Now valves are open
5. Now start the car and wake up the whole city.

Kindly provide a little clarification please:

1. Get in the car.
2. Start the car (not the engine). You mean turn the ignition on?
3. Put it in sport. Which switch? There are 3 switches we can put in Sport mode.
4. A little throttle blip (with the car still off!!!) Now valves are open
5. Now start the car and wake up the whole city.

Thanks in advance.

Just get a valve controller and be done w/ it. You will have full control over exhaust flappers 100% of the time. Some will also let you shut off active sound on demand too.
