Thats where im getting lost Flyer. I'm getting less vapor than a 70PG/30VG blend. I vape my blend at 3.7v and get clouds. I vape the 100% VG at 5v and very little vapor production? Is that unusual?

All things equal, yes, that's unusual. I have a juice that I use to vape at 70/30, switched to 50/50 and vapor production went up significantly, but throat hit dropped significantly also. I assume you used the same juice and delivery system to compare.

What is your nic strength. Nic is the main component of throat hit. Yes vg diffinetly inhibits TH to an extent but with low nic you are going to have a hard time getting it without plenty of nic. Remember that even 100% pg will give zero TH when zero nic is present.

Im using 3.0 dual coil tanks from Apollo for both my BWB Casablanca and for the AVE Boba's Bounty both being run by a SS VTube. Do you think i might need to punch another hole in the cart for the 100% VG due to its thickness ?

First, ditch the dual coils. They're really inefficient to begin with. That alone may put you where you expected to be. If you're not getting burnt flavor, the carto is wicking fine and another hole won't change anything.

Over the edge...
VG does not give much of a throat hit if any.

That may be your experience. It's not my experience. My favorite juice is Flue Cured from AVE. At 24mg strength vaped at 5 volts, it delivers massive throat hit and vapor. Too much, actually. I vape it at 4.3 or 4.4 volts. VG juices can have awesome throat hit at a high nic level.

You should punch another hole and make it a little larger. When I use the hardware store carto punch, I turn it 1 to 2 more full turns after it pops through. Your VG juice isn't gonna make it through the tiny default ones unless you thin out your juice.

I think you hit the nail on the head with this answer

With 18 you have a decent chance. 12mg will be alot less TH especially at 100% vg. My experience with high vg is limited so i only have book knowledge.

Little vapor production with 100% vg doesnt make sense when everything is working properly. So maybe your vaporizer very little liquid. More holes/bigger holes makes sense.

This is a good point. The vapor will be very cool unless your pumping some massive volts/amps to it. Especially dual coils at 3 ohms. Each coil is 6 ohms each. Didnt even know they made a 3 ohm DC.

I just asked my Smoktech rep and apparently the highest DC ohm rating is 2.0, so not sure where a 3.0 is coming from.

They might be combining the 1.5s and calling them 3?
