What batteries do you have?
That is the all important question. If you're not thinking of the limitations of them, best not enter one at all.

Not gonna win any cloud comps w/ mnke's. It is fun to play around tho.
Vape safe brotha.
My ohm meter goes 2 places to the right of the decimal(can't remember what that is off the top of my head) and mattyb1503 what batteries would you recommend then I can't find any sonys around otherwise id have them.

right of the deci you have tenth's then 100th's.
im not 100% im quite new to 26650 but i hear keeppower might be good but dont take my word for it, best to do some homework, they are also 5mm longer than efest & mnke sooo.....
It my local b&m I just want to set it up and perfect it before the comp gets announced so I am ready and another shop is considering having one every 2 weeks and I wanna show them you don't need a coil built to .01 to blow massive clouds
For info on the KeepPower 26650s you can check my blog post. rtdvapor carries the 50A ones... it is 50A pulse, 30A continuous... I posted the full spec sheet and the link to KeepPower in my blog post if anyone is interested in reading up on them. 
Wrap a sick 26g parallel and load it with 100% VG and win it all. Do a 3/4 wrap around a 2.5mm. Your atty and batty will make massive difference as well. Your coil, airhole and wick positioning will also affect your clouds. So get that setup in optimal position. Most super airy drippers should do the trick. Do the same build around a 2.5mm or a 3mm mandrel and see what that does. Try tilting the coils up. Use Rayon. I think shoulder wicks give the biggest clouds since there is so much air under the coil where all the vapor is spitting out. Don't pack the atty with wick---that's where people blow it. You need plenty of air with that 100%VG. At the very least, you will not embarrass yourself with a version of this setup. Don't take any vapor into your lungs. The cloud winners only do massive mouth pulls....Leave all the vapor in your mouth before you blow your clouds...The guy with the best setup and the most massive squirrel cheeks will win it. Good luck.
Edit: I would use the Helios...

use the 24 ga. Parallels, 4 or 5 wraps (i prefer 5) on a 1/8th bit. Even then, you are gonna be at a disadvantage to anyone running nichrome 22, 20 or 18ga. But the 24 should do OK if you practice your breathing and use straight VG.
sounds like some cheek strecthing is on the cards then Some good advice though.
