330i B46 Muffler Recommendations

I'm trying to figure out what my best option would be in regard to upgrading my muffler for my 330i. Currently have a res delete and love the pops and bangs in sport plus mode, but want some more sound while driving. Don't want to go down the path of a downpipe because the engine light will drive me crazy, regardless of clearing it. Also think a muffler delete wouldn't sound the best given it's a 4 cylinder. I'm considering the MPE but from what I've read, it's not much louder than stock. Can anyone with an MPE confirm? Is spending a little more for something from a brand like Stone, Remus, Fi etc. worth it? I saw a muffler from Megan Racing that is significantly cheaper than everything out there right now but cant find many clips on how it sounds. Any advice would be much appreciated and if anyone has any sound clips of an after market exhaust with a res delete and stock cat, would love to hear it!

I have resonate delete and exhaust flap open and would like a little bit more there really is only 2 ways of going about it.

-catless down pipe (more power more sound) get a tune or spark plug non fouler/mini cats for CEL

-axle back (find one used on here or get the Megan one clips on YouTube and few people have it on here) bigger tips will add more sound not as loud as down pipe

Do you think a straight pipe will sound bad ? 💀 I have a muffler delete on my b46 g20 330i and have a vrsf down pipe coming in (been waiting for 2 months already 😐 )

It's going to sound really good, post some clips of it when you can.
