I'm using 80%pg /20 %vg with a low resistance cartomiser on an Icon right now and it rocks.
PGA will add to the throat hit for most i really don't notice much of a difference. But i also vape like i smoked bring the vapor into my mouth and letting it cool before I inhale. I also dont use 100 VG i usually mix my DiY at 50/50 or 40/60 pg/vg. I did make one recipe that called for 20% PGA and it didnt seem much different then ones without it, but i think that is due to how i vape. you could make a small batch and try it out. If you dont like it PGA is used for other things , like dissolving menthol crystals , ethyl maltol and for cutting flavors based in oil that are hard to mix. Also i like to use it in my final rinse when cleaning atomizers since it leaves almost no taste behind.
From my own personal experience and readings dozens of threads on the subject: The higher the PG% the greater the TH, the higher the VG% the greater the vapor is. Personally I use a 50/50 mix and I am very happy with it but it will depend on your own likes and dislikes.
I buy liquids with 100% PG at either 18mg or 24mg nicotine strength. Then I mix up my own liquid in a separate empty bottle, adding some of the liquid I've bought (like RY4 and Green Apple for example, the same amount of each), and then I'll add VG to equal about the same amount of the RY4 and Green Apple combined. I use Glycerin that I bought at Wal-Mart (found on the shelf above the rubbing alcohol). I usually end up with somewhere between 40 and 50% Glycerin and 60 to 50% of the RY4 and Green Apple (that both contain 100% PG).
Example: 4mL RY4, 4mL Green Apple, 5.5mL Glycerin, when using 18mg nicotine strength. If the nicotine strength is 24mg, I would add 8mL of Glycerin. Then my final nicotine strength is 12mg, which is more than the Merit Ultra Light 100s I used to smoke, but it seems to be the best throat hits and taste for me.
I just started vaping on September 14th, and this is what I've found works best for me now, but I know I could easily make changes in the future.

70 PG /30 VG at the most.
Pure VG just doesn't wick well in cartomizers, and actually doesn't taste very good.

I never vaped before so I don't know what I'm gonna want from my experience. do I want big clouds or hits like analogs I can't answer that till Oct. 4 when I get my stuff and puff away. But now I have a little knowledge so I can start building my DIY kit. thanks for replying

Your probably going to end up with a mix of PG /VG once you find what you like. 50/50 works well for me much higher on the vg it starts tasting funky to me. Here is a pic of my cloud i made with my eGo and LR atomizer it was a 50/50 mix on the juice.

woww i never though a 50/50 mix would produce that much vapor as i see in your photo nice!!!
I like to use 100% VG in my juice. When I use PG I get an itchy throat but the flavors do come out more with PG. So to each his own. You can also DIY to get more flavors but my juice isn't too thick and I blow more smoke than I did with regular cigarettes.
Yeah that was a pretty thick cloud. I thought for a minute i was going to get a thunder shower out of it
