Default I need a rear sway bar,N,P or V?

My turbo 95 wagon was supplied without a rear sway bar?
I'm looking to get rid of all understeer and am wondering which rear bar is thicker.
OEM bars are listed as being for suspension codes n,p or v.
Can anyone tell what models these codes are for or the respective diameters?
OR
Can I buy just an after market rear bar somewhere?

IPD sells sways, they're expensive. Best bet would find a sedan that's being parted, they had them more often than the wagons did. Supposedly the T5-R/Rs had thicker rear sways but not sure if that's entirely true.

Yes the R's have thicker sways.
I think they are 5MM bigger than the other cars.

IPD sell the bars individually, just call your order instead of the online checkout. IPD rear bar is 22mm. They have made limited runs of 25/27/28mm rear bars. Contact Lucky at IPD to see if you want to get on a list for a group buy, but that will probably more towards spring.
