I use a Hypertech 160 that I purchased at O'Reilys. They work well.

Have the part number by any chance?
I have seen them sold with housing and without. Which do I need and why?
Thanks,

I don't have the part number but they can look it up. Mine was a complete unit and that's all I've ever seen. I paid around $65. I've seen guys complaining about other brands. When you remove the stock unit, I wasn't aware that you could remove the thermostat from the housing.

I heard Auto Zone has 'em. but haven't tried. All I have is stock ones out of the car, so I can't help there. Let me know if you need any help with anything else though :yesnod:
EDIT>>> found them at Auto Zone:
