What is everyone doing for exhaust nowadays?

Been reading some older threads from 2018 and it seemed like a Borla X pipe that removes the secondary cats and then Corsa extreme Axle back was the way to go. Well now, it doesn't seem like Borla sells the mid pipe anymore...
Are there any other exhaust systems that remove the secondary cats? I want to get the best sound as possible without drone. Ive heard some about AWE but not a lot... Any suggestions? Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse!!!
THANK YOU!!

The horse is so dead, even the tombstone is faded at this point.

AWE has the secondary cat delete pipes, plus the Touring system has zero drone, sounds amazing, and the absolute nicest tips out there. Get tons of compliments every time I’m out driving around...which is 4 months a year in New England...

I’m keeping my stock exhaust system! Not going to spend money on aftermarket exhaust parts!

If you are never going to tune it, and I mean never. Like not even maybe down the road. I would go with Corsa Extreme. It’s amazing! Tough and a good clean sound.

If going to tune it. Just stick with factory and add Headers with no cats. Should be plenty loud.

If I didn’t have what I have already, I’d be buying an AWE Touring with Performance Link Pipes (secondary cat deletes).

So far on my 19 ZLE, I did the AWE Touring axle back and the sound is amazing, no drone at cruising and people are amazed on how it sounds granted I don't have the NPP function but it's not bothering me, eventually I will do 3 inch from the secondary cats back to the AWE and call it good.

After almost 3 years ...

Still using the factory NPP on Track setting.

Still flipping it to stealth before early morning starts to be neighborly.

Still sounds amazing!

AWE Track Edition Axle Back with Performance Link Pipes. Sound is amazing and at WOT, what a rush. However, a lot of drone and if you use tracks with noise restriction, I suspect you would have a problem.

We usually recommend customers go with long tubes and the factory NPP. It's generally perfect volume wise and having the NPP makes it easy to live with. For some who wants it louder you can always ditch the NPP from there. The AWE, Stainless Works, Flowmaster, Borla and Corsa have been the most popular sellers. I don't think you can pick something that won't sound amazing.
