There are a million rules for inspections. You can look up the whole mess of them somewhere on the DMV website. NYC is starting to adopt noise cameras like red light cameras so I wouldn't be surprised if it's part of the inspection now.
My general plan is going to the sketchiest place I can find, bonus points if they don't speak English, and give them $20 in cash for the sticker. Otherwise you have someone taking off wheels and such to check the brakes for you or giving you shit for any amount of tint. I'll need to do this again this month so I'll report back on how it went. No issues last year though.

Update - got it done for $37. $7 for the inspection and $30 for whatever. Had my girlfriend drive it in since I don’t speak Spanish. She said the extra money was for the tints and because it has just over 15k miles or something like that. He just slapped a sticker on it, no actual inspection. Doesn’t matter to me - cheaper than a parking ticket.

So in prep for my return to long island, i just completed the 3000 mile drive with the supra. Happy to say no oil drop detected.
I went to a mavis to see how they are enforcing inspections. The SLEEP act technically does not say no modified exhaust, it says the exhaust cannot be louder than stock.
Nevertheless, it looks like the company stance is any exhaust that is not stock will fail inspection. I am not sure if this is the general policy of chain stores. I will probably just flip the stock back on.
