The Perrin is good. 25mm is a great size, it's solid, comes with mounts.
25mm is a perfect size actually. I also like the Whiteline 24mm adjustable, and recommend that for track guys that already have coilovers with a good amount of rate in the rear. That bar is also good with stock suspension or just springs.
Not enough people believe in front and rear swaybars for EVO....we are fans.

Cusco 23mm 3-way adjustable rear sway bar is the best money can buy from my experience. I have it on my Evo and it was by far one of the best suspension mods I made to my Evo. It's great when you can adjust it to each track. I do advise you to test each setting on an autocross type set up so you can safely, see the limits and how it changes the way the car handles.
Why pay more money for somthing so close to stock. Stock rear sway bars are 22mm, at LEAST get a 24, perfer 25mm.

I'd pick 25-27mm bar over a 23mm anyday of the week at any track...

We, WORKS, offer a matching 26mm front and 24mm rear bar.
We have made a few 25mm rear bars for unique race car set-ups. But in most EVOs, this typically causes loss of traction by unloading the inside rear wheel which translates into slower lap times.
You can see these bars by clicking below:

I don't see how you can tell us you're not in the mood to search - that's not cool. If you want info, you do your homework - that's just how it works.
Anyway, there's for more to "tightening up the handling a little bit" than just adding a $200 part. I do not recommend randomly choosing a rear sway and installing it. Your suspension is a SYSTEM, and you need to modify it as a system, not as a collection of individual pieces. Is a 23, 24, 25, 26, or 27mm aftermarket rear sway bar a proper complement to what you already have? Is your valving along with your spring rates designed to be combined with a stiffer rear sway? What about the tires you'll be using?
All of this needs to be considered ABOVE AND BEYOND asking what the best rear sway bar is...
