that sux man.. i'm also in ny and i'd say warm up the car real nice before the inspection and don't let it cool
cats start to work only after they get to a certain temperature..
or an effective solution: you can put your stock y-pipe back on for inspection and then pass, and then put the aftermarket y-pipe right after, successfully fooling the system. it's a bit of work but it beats paying $35 for each failed inspection.

Clean your throttle body if it wasn't included in your injector cleaning.

See www.motorvate.ca for instructions.

Check and clean your EGR system. If you pass everything else but you are high in NOx that means there is an issue with the EGR system.

Use the higher octane gas if you aren't using it now.
