A base F-Type with the active exhaust?
Yes and no.
It will still crackle and pop, just not quite as much or as loudly as a car with the active exhaust in "loud" (exhaust valves open) mode.
And automatic is completely irrelevant, I have a V6 automatic with switchable active exhaust. It's just that the base V6 wasn't optioned with the active exhaust (passive or switchable) as often as the V6S was.

Yes, if you have non-switchable active exhaust, you can simply plug the vacuum lines to the valves. I did mine and plugged the valves themselves just to keep debris out. It is very easy to do with a couple short lengths of vacuum hose and anything to plug the hoses.
