NJ State Inspection for Exhausts

I was under the belief that in NJ the state law, there is no law for exhaust loudness, only if you have a cat or not. I went through inspection today and they failed me for exhaust too loud as well as some other simple things, though i didn't have my silencer in my exhaust isn't hugely loud. So i wanted to know about the exhuasts, whats legal and whats not so i know how to fight it when i return since i have a 48 hour immediate repair required.

Every motor vehicle having a combustion motor shall have at all times a muffler in good working order and in constaint operation to preventexcessive or unusual noise and annoying smoke and no person shall use a muffler cut-out, bypass or similar divice upon a motor vehicle on a highway.

Short version: if its not stock the inspector can fail you for it.

Your best bet is to try and go to a private inspection station they will probably pass you if its not too loud.
