Going into winter, a stock temp thermostat should be fine. Wahler is a good brand. As for fuel filters, the type is pretty well dictated by the fittings unless you want to do some plumbing. Bosch # is 71 005 with the outlet fitting, # 71 039 w/o the fitting. Get the fitting as well as copper crush washers for the banjo bolts. If you still have the o.e. turbo and intercooler you needn't try boosting over 12-14. Anything more and you'll be blowing hot air and increase the detonation.

what do you mean by blowing hot air because when im on the highway hot air comes through vents even though the heat is not on unless its just the air blowing in through grille.
