Need help with a build

You shouldn't need to change the build the achieve either of these things. I recently replied to another post and I think it may help so I'll copy and paste a bit of my reply here for you...
Basically, for more flavour, close the airflow off more. As above, this will result in a hotter vape but it will be more flavourful. For clouds, open it up all the way... the vapour will be cooler and the flavour won't be as intense though.
As you have a regulated mod that goes to 150watts, the wattage you vape at is also going to make a massive difference! Generally speaking, the higher watts you vape at, the bigger the clouds are gonna be and the more flavourful the vape.
I'm assuming that this is your first go at this kind of set up so I'd start at 20 - 25 watts.. take a few hits and then knock it up to 30, then 35, 40 etc etc. I'd be surprised if you needed to go anywhere near 150watts - I usually vape at around 30 - 45 and anything above 60watts is just too hot for me, not a nice experience at all!
Different builds can make a difference to your experience but ultimately, its more about power (watts/voltage) and airflow. I find that there are huge differences between RDA's too. For example, for flavour I'd go to a derringer, hobo or magma; for clouds I'd maybe go for a CLT or a Mutation X.
I know I'm yapping on now, sorry. So basically experiment with different watts, airflow and atty's. Changing the build might make a slight difference (more so on a mech rather than regulated) but it wont make anywhere near as bigger change as power or airflow. Just go for a nice solid dual coil job and get it wicked right. Check out RIP TRIPPERS on youtube, he has a good tutorial for centre builds... get that nailed and crank up the power and airflow!
Hope that helps! Enjoy!

The above post by PatheticMr is spot on . My go to build for flavor and clouds with my Archon & Sig 150W is twisted 26ga 6/7 wraps 3mm ID which comes out right around .5Ω-.6Ω and I usually vape it around 90W-110W.
Yep, the difference between clouds on my SubTanks with a TC build is all in the airflow and lung hit vs mouth hit.
I don't notice a flavor difference, that's set with temperature and wicking. Although if I try a mouth hit with the airflow wide open I notice.
TC has made me question the old concept of more heat, although more airflow may require you to turn up the power to provide the same heat which TC would do automatically.
My TC builds are 3.5" of 26ga Ti, 3.5mm a modified pancake wicking with organic cotton ball.
