I’m so confused what engine I have now as the engine says ly7 on it but I have a single tip, I think I’ll get new wheels first before exhaust

So would ss 18/8rims without Tyers and then get some 245/40 be a good idea as I could do that and the cost would not be bad, be a good idea?

If the plate says LY7, you have LY7. You can't convert to LE0 without significant expense.
LY7 will have a motor on the back of the intake plenum on S1. S1 and S2 will have four cam sensors and four cam actuators on the front of the motor. LE0 will have two cam sensors and two cam actuators. (one each side) and no motor on the back of the intake plenum on (series 1)

either way, to do what is skimmed over here so far, wheels and exhaust, you'll want a budget of around $3-4k

If I was on my P’s and 17 again, I’d be saving that coin toward a Kontiki tour and get messed up and meet nice European ladies.

I can get second hand parts though that will cut a fair bit off like second hand wheels and part of the exhaust
