Dual resistance coils?

So I'm getting tired of my current build. Quad verticals, single wire, .23 ohms, 64 wraps. The cloud production is awesome, but the flavor isn't as good as I'd like and the ramp-up time is killing my battery life. I don't want to go out and buy more wire right now, but I have some Kanthal and Mad Rabbit laying around, both 24ga. I like to stay between .18-.25 ohms, and I like it to hit pretty fast. I'm thinking either some simple parallels, one of each wire, OR do an "inception coil" type build with the Kanthal as the small coils and large MR coils around them.
What do you guys think?

If you run a parallel build with the kanthal on the inside it'd vape well as a staged heating build. Like 6 wraps of the rabbit, 5 wraps of kanthal, so that both of the kanthal leads are on the inside and the rabbit leads are on the outside. Or 7 wraps/6 wraps. One extra wrap of the lower resistance wire will cause it to fire at almost the same time as the kanthal, but not quite. It's always a good build when selection is limited

Did a 6/7 (.14" ID) and it gave me .12 ohms. So I redid it with 9/10 and it's fluctuating between .20 and .22, perfect build... which is good cause now I'm out of wire.
