I have thought of making my own evans from what I have found it is propalene glycol ~70% with 30% being ethaline glycol. they added the EG to thin it out so it is easier to pump when cold. The only reason that it "out performs water" is because water can boil on hot spots and the boiling prevents the coolant from touching the metal to remove more heat.
