It's a matter of grammar

When you are talking about MEPs outloud, how do you pronounce it?

1. An M-E-P (Saying each letter individually)
2. A M-E-P
3. A "mep" Pronouncing it like a word. (it rhymes with pep)
4. A Multi-Editor-Project.

Which one is correct?

This is very important.

Also Pie.

Depends how lazy I am. If I'm really lazy, i'll go with 3, not so lazy, 1, not lazy at all, 4.

Yeahh but which one is most correct?

the only one that isn't correct is #2. all the others are valid ways to to say it.

But isn't the "An" only reserved for words that start with a vowel?

If you pronounce "M-E-P" as "Em-E-Pee" then it does start with a vowel, phonologically speaking - so technically yes, it's supposed to be "an".
