Anyone have a dB reading of an n54 w/ muffler delete?

I used to have an e92 335i with a muffler delete and I'm trying to use that as a basis for determining what exhaust to get on my current car. I've searched and haven't found what I'm looking for yet. I'm interested in the noise level at idle and peak measurements.

The number of muffler delete videos for n54's on YouTube leads me to believe theres a sizable enough pool of people. It doesn't need to be a scientific measurement, I'm fine with the results from an app on a phone.

The exhaust I'm looking at for my car peaks at 105db so I'm just trying to see how similar in loudness these setups are.

I'll download a db app on my 6s and tell you how it goes on my way home in about an hour. When cruising, 2100-2500 is quiet loud, so I usually cruise between 2500-3000.

102 db peak from the cold start. Cruising it's in the 92-97db range depending on rpm.
