Just to update, I finally received the tune from Steeda for the 2006 GT I was working on.
The only changes made in the tune was to turn on the rear o2's and heaters.
Car ran all monitors on OBD scanner and connected to NYS inspection machine and passed.
So far I am two for two with inspections. I hope that puts some people at ease, but I would not wait until last minute to get your inspection done in case it does not go smoothly.

The new machines can tell if the tune is stock or custom. If the tune is custom , there is no communication. Hence you fail the test. Your failing not because the car does not pass the test. Their program does not want to evaluate the car. This is an issue. If you put the stock tune back in for inspection , their program will communicate with the car and perform its testing data program. If no emmissions issues are detected, there will be a PASS. They are failing cars that have no emmissions issues and are NYS EMMISSIONS COMPLIANT . They are custom tuned. OPUS INSPECTION took over the NYS contract. 50% of all inspection sites , now have the NEW machines in NYS. The machines have been in operation since JANUARY 2014.:nono:
Inspection fines are as follows: 60 months or less out of inspection $50.00 plus an $85 surcharge if ticketed. More than 60 months or no window sticker $100 plus $85 surcharge. :nono:

And holy hell... 85% "surcharge" to accompany the gouging for not passing with clean emissions?!!! Gotta love it.
If the state used this money to fix bridges, roads, and infrastructure that would make some sense... But where oh where does it go??? (Thinking of my own CONCRETE roadbed outside in White Plains, with 2 potholes every 15 feet).
I took my 98 Saleen in for inspection after registering it. I was worried because it does throw a CEL for the high flow cats from time to time, says bank 1 is below threshold. I originally put a bassani high flow X on her and the previous owner replaced one of the cats with another high flow since some of the old car broke off and shot into the muffler.
Passed without issue and thank god for that.

NYS inspection machine kept trying to communicate wouldn't finish test like machine was locked up. Tried a couple times no luck. Then I switched to stock tune. After switching to stock tune it communicated and completed test but switch to stock tune reset monitors. Im putting miles on it to reset monitors and bringing back this week to try again. So it didn't fail I just need to complete monitors but have no inspection sticker so just as bad as failing.
Has anyone figured out how to get these vehicles inspected that are comming up with no communication? A friend just stopped by telling me his 01 cobra has failed due to this code from 3 places and no one can tell him why. Now im worried because im going in a couple days to try and get my inspected.
When putting chip back into computer is the only time I took battery cable off.
So you switched to the stock tune at the inspection station and tried again?
Who tuned the car? What was it tuned with? Do you know of anything turned off in the tune?
This is the info I'm looking for.
ETA- I see you said you brought it back and no comms again. Was the stock tune installed or did you switch back to your previous tune?
PS- Fast5- that BAB Saleen is one damn fine looking vehicle! WOW!
