So I have an ego t for about a month and have found out I don't really like the tank system it leaks to much and the flavor is muted. I really like dripping and have been using a 510 Atty and a drip tip. I would like to know the best setup for a ego to drip? Should I just keep using the 510 or is there anything else that would be better?
Best EGO drip setup

I would suggest either a standard resistance or LR atties. Don't go below 2.0Ω because the eGo uses a MOSFET switch that could be damaged by lower ohm atties. I really like the Dual Coil cartomizers, too. I'm currently using a Liquinator tank with the DC's and I really love it! It works great, even with 60PG/40VG or 50/50 mixes!
The tank atties are quite a bit different from regular atties. It's harder to drip with those because you have to get the juice right on the spike or else you'll get a dry, tasteless, harsh vape. It's easier to use the regular 510 atties with a delrin drip tip.
Could be. I personally don't find it difficult in the least. But yeah, I guess it's possible to miss. *shrug*
If you plan to keep dripping you can de-plate a tank atty and drip with it just as easily as a regular 510, it's designed without a bridge so it has that going for it too.. (I love how I can pretend to be knowledgeable on something I accidentally discovered a few hours ago) I've got a dedicated dripping type a atty that I'm using right now (I lost the plate) and it's performing really well. My drip tip doesn't fit that well on it so I use a regular cartridge without the bottom cap.. take it off to drip naturally.
May I ask how many eGo type batts have you lost due to LR dual coil cartos?
It's becoming obvious, due to my personal and others' observations and posts, that the above quoted statement no longer holds any 'water'. I'm a very heavy vaper and have yet to lose an eGo batt (650, 900 & 1000) in over three months of heavy vaping with 1.6Ω dual coils. And my batts are at least four months old in that I bought some used right after I started vaping.
Yes, I've read of folk that 'lost' batts due to dual coil cartos in the past, but not recently. Actually, I wonder how many of those batt/cart combos had center post issues as opposed to dual coil induced failures.
Here's a thought... Would Mad Vapes sell THIS KIT with the 1.6Ω eGo Mega Dual Coil Cartomizers if the cartos would 'destroy' the batts? I think not!
Oh, I might as well address the DCC shortened batt life issue while I'm here...
Due to the great performance of my eGo batt and eMDCC combos, I really don't care if I get only, say, 75% of normal batt life. If one dies tomorrow, I'll just replace it. Two days of cig money and I've got a batt that will last, at the very least, four months. I'll wager that my originals will last six months...
To put it in perspective, even at four months, it's only $.13 a day!!!
I don't mean to get huffy, but I think it a shame that the best eGo combo I've tried (been through 'em all) is being maligned unjustifiably, guiding many new vapers away from a very fulfilling and satisfying vape!
BTW, I traded off my Old Goat mod once I started using the eMDCCs.
But what do I know? I'm just the 180# vapinig ol' fart in da room...
BOT, yes, the eGo de-plated atty makes a great dripping PV. It's what I use for testing samples.

On my eGo I use a 1.5 ohm LR 510-T atty (minus the wick plate). The 510-T has by far the best ceramic cup design for dripping of any 510 atty. With Cisco's eGo drip shield added to the package it's about as good as it gets.
Drip Shield Cone - Avid Vaper
The cone allows any juice that leaks to be drawn back into the atty and used, which the eGo cone does not.

i really like the 306 atty fits the ego, if you haven't tried one your missing out 
just be sure to prime it because these don't come packed in that nasty stuff. i use a flavorless liquid put 4 drops on it, let it sit for 2 minutes, then drop 2 drops of my favorite liquid on it and good to go. be sure to get a 306 drip tip as well.
i also use a 901 drip shield from empire (fits a 510) and a 510 to 510 sealed adapter also from empire. I don't know why this works, but it really makes dripping an awesome experience, also those adapters and drip shields keep the juice from leaking...love it Empire Drip Shields here is a link if you want to check it out

Thanks for all the advise. I will look into the drip sheilds. I have used the Mad Vapes Dual Coil cartomizer and I like that better than the tank system. I guess its all just trial and error in this business.
