I think it would be the PATB Distortion. I heard some one hear made a tyranotiton it's suppose to be a super hot pup.

I think it would still be X2N. Lundgren M7 has had the highest output feel to my ears, though.
BKP Warpig is super hot but IMO it's not as hot as Lundgren M or X2N.

Warpig isn't all that hot, just high resistance figures because it's 45 awg.
X2N and the Invader are still kings in this department.
Most "power" comes from the magnet, for the record. People really need to stop looking at resistance figures to determine output.

yes, the Motherbucker is superhot with huge ceramic mags, just as the OTT, but is it that awesome hot? no. not really. I have that pickup and it's NOT that hot. I think it may turn out a lot of voltage, but it's not that 'hot' when you play it because it just acts as a superbig compression pedal.

Could very well be this : https://bareknucklepickups.co.uk/main/pickups.php?cat=humbuckers&sub=contemporary&pickup=black_hawk
"Black Hawk humbuckers were designed in response to players' demands for a pickup that embodied the transparency and output of an active, with the character and wide dynamic control of a passive."

I'd imagine that the Q-Tuners with the neodymium mags are pretty darn powerful.

Manluis custom hot is pretty freaking powerful but it has a lot of mids. If its bass you be needing the go for the invader. If you want big bass relaxes mids and sharp top. Go for the sh-5. Its not near as hot as any of these other pups but is definatly high output in my opinion. I have got some awsomly brutal tones from the custom.
