I haven't even insulated my boot area, car is 100% stock just bolted the cat-back on.

All exhausts are known to get louder with HFCs so YMMV if you go ahead with those.

HKS Hi-power is almost silent as stock if you are in the first 10% of the throttle range and below 3000RPM. But as soon as you put a bit of load on it comes to life and makes a nice, noticeable note (it's a lot louder outside the car than in the cabin though, which suits me fine). But no drone.
Thanks for this! I think I'm going to try HKS and see. I like my cars sound, but I'm the same as you, drone kills my ride. It's just too loud when it doesn't need to be!
