It's because I copied yours.
I'll try boring out the air hole next. I also got a PM to try a larger air hole too.

I thought i had it figured out. Got in some bobas bounty wrapped a 8 wrap parallel coil metering out at .6 ohms and had great flavor but lacked vapor and had a strong throat hit. So i wrapped the same coil with 30 guage metered at .9 ohms and lack of flavor. So than i wrapped a 10 wrap 29 guage parallel coil metered at .8 ohms and same thing no flavor. Have tried it with bobas and hype. I am going to try and get some pictures up later.
One thing i noticed is my ceramic base is raised past the level of the rm2 unlike the ones i have seen where the base is below the sides. Cant see how that would effect anything but does anyone know if it can be adjusted. Any input is greatly appreciated.
Bored out the air hole to 1/16" (I had the drill bits lying around anyway for building my coils) and finally got a huge improvement in flavor and vapor. It seems it was an airflow issue afterall. Thank you everyone (especially @zmails for his suggestion to increase the size of the air hole) for your help!

If you think 1/16" is that much better, go up to 5/64". If it gets worse as opposed to better, I'll replace your RM2.
Raise the height of your coil. If you are getting splashed, use a longer/narrower drip tip. At sub-ohm voltage you should have your air hole bored out to at least 3/32".
tried it . .. .. worse .. . . . . . .. . . .. .. .. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd?

pdib, you know what I'm gonna say...
"Pics or didn't happen!"
Fett, can you try an 8 wrap single 29 ga micro coil and see how that works? The shorter coil will provide for a shorter wick and perhaps boost flavor.
Your coil looks great by the way. Good job.
Sorted out some issues with my positive pin and now my Reo is firing up to it's maximum. With a 1/16" air hole, 28 gauge kanthal micro wrapped 8 times on a 1.5mm bit and wicked with cotton, I'm now getting some awesome very flavorful vapor. I think this now outperforms my Immortalizer on my Vanilla mod when it comes to flavor.
Thanks to everyone who helped!
