I got these two atties that came with a recent purchase. I actually got 3 of the same kind, one works great and is up to par with my other 510s while two are just not good. Very low vapor and kinda 'airy' in my opinion. What could I do to improve these? Would De-bridging them help?

Oh I'm also willing to go further, I have 16g nicrome for some DIY I never got into yet.

If they are airy, and the vapor is low, are you getting good flavor and just not enough vape, or is it lacking in both vape and flavor? I'd say that plugging one of your draw holes might do you a bit better (the tiny holes on the side just above the screw threads). And easy test of air flow is to simply slide a piece of an oversized straw over it and push it up against one side.

No it was airy but hard to suck on. I ended up taking an atty and reconstructing it. XD It got to me lol.

As for the other one I let it sit in alcohol for 24 hours, let it dry out for another day and it was fixed. This did not solve the problem for the first one though. This is when I reconstructed it. So I guess in my situation it was a dying coil; when I took this thing apart it was pretty dirty.
