If you want more mods, the Mod Manager is a good place to start. If you’re this far in, and your testing has all passed, you are now set.

If you want, test between core install and 1.06 to 1.075.

Install 1.06 first, then 1.06 to 1.075 (it updates a couple files). Read your readme, look over the folder structure.you’ll find a set of numbered archive files (not in addons). Again, I don’t have it in front if me, so I can’t give the exact folder structure, but that’s a key distinction. These DO NOT install as mods, install as fake patches (iirc), so you’re installing in the main game architecture instead of the addon directory. You need two downloads: 1.06 Core Alpha and 1.06 to 1.075. Same deal as the patch - search it, find the most recent version (should be on Egosoft’s forum), follow directions, install, test. I think you get directly from the Egosoft forums, but you can probably just find it by searching X3AP patch 3.4 (iirc). Now you need to patch the game (you don’t need it to run, the GOG war pack is almost up to date, but there are some useful tweaks). So any instruction that points you to a TC folder should be taken as “to the warpack folder.” Instead, it’s a single folder architecture and separate TC and AP exe files.

Point forward, it’s important to note that (iirc) the War Pack does not have separate TC and AP folders. Open the game, start a new game, see if it works. (Note: I have multiple installs with different mod sets, so you can juggle them if you’re careful not to let them try to cross communicate.until you’re comfortable doing that, stick to the clean install). You may need to manually clean up saves and other stuff buried in the Windows User folders. So they want a clean system and a fresh install before you add the mod. The reason for this is that if you have old install files that the modded game tries to access, it can break things. Clean every trace of prior installs from the folder you plan to install into, and I’d back up/move all the extra stuff that gets dumped elsewhere (like saves). I think there are other vectors to get the mod, but that may affect your install instructions. Everything I did was pulled from the site’s directions or the readme files that come with the downloads. Bear with me below - it’s been a few months since I last installed, and I’m trying to do this from memory. My home machine is down and I’m a few days from being able to get it up and running, but the answer to your final question is “absolutely.” I run SWMod Reborn on a GOG TWP install, and a bunch of other mods as well.
