Default What temperature thermostat??

My thermostat has seized so flicked through burtons to order a new one - but they have 3 operating temperature ranges - 82, 88 and 92 degree celcius. My (cosworth) engine is 450 - 480bhp - which one do i use and why are there 3 different types available? what is the benefit?
Cheers
