Exhaust pops and bangs

I've got the exhaust bypass mod done a while back, and it's the best money I've ever spent on the car. It's gorgeous.

Sound of it here:

On cold, blipping the throttle, or driving in 1st gear to 3,000rpm and letting it coast, makes the exhaust pop and bang on the run down. It sounds incredible, and sounds very 981 spyder like. I'll try to get a video soon.

However, when the engine and exhaust warms up, this goes. The exhaust still sounds immense, but there's no more pops and bangs on the run down (well rarely - you still get the odd CRACK now and then on the run down).

My question is this: is there any way to make the exhaust pop and bang, even when it's warm? I know it's silly and possibly borderline immature, but I adore the sound of it and can't quite work out the physics on why it stops when warm. Any way to make it last even when warm?

Will be interested to hear thoughts. Thanks chaps.
