It depends on what you want. You can roll a 22 gauge 4 wraps and blow your hand off. Don't rely on a coil calculator for rebuilding, you NEED an ohmmeter.

I wrap 5 complete, 24 gauge, no gap coils and I'm at .16 ohm on a mech mod. High vapor, decent flavor.

Moral of the story: GET AN OHM METER

ya iv saw that but i was wanting a recommendation on the wire and cotton and the ohm build like i said im new i dont know what to shoot for

28 or 30 guage to learn on is more forgiving. Organic cotton either Japanese or Egyptian for your wicking Is what I would recommend. But as with everything in vaping everyone will tell you something different. Go with what you feel most comfortable trying.

So im ordering a Indulgence Mutation X RDA, what guage wire would be good to get and cotton, and what width would i need to wrap the wire? iv watched some videos i know to wrap them 6 times push together up and not on the posts, ill be using a seigeli 150w, iv been using an arctic sub ohm and aspire atlantis sub ohm,

normally I say 30 gauge is a good place to start, but if you're using the sigelei 150 I'd say go for 28, maybe even 26.

Heck with a 150 w you can make some massive 22-24 g

The real problem is its not just do this and get that. You have to experiment with diff builds to hit exactly what you want.
One night be all cloud little flavor
Next one might be just right.
I know flavorwise the mutations don't even start to shine till 50+ easy

would a dual coil 24g kanthol work well in that rda? iv saw some build tutorials on that? what kind of ohms would that get

It would work well and the ohms depend how you wrap it. That is why you need an ohm reader and the calculator. your box can fire down to .1 but I would aim for .5
can i not use the ohm reader on my other boxmods innokin and jellyfish they read accurate they read the subohm coils perfect even change when they get hot and expand, or do i need a special kind
