Why spend $100+ bucks for a FX or AX or even $85 for a TT 46 ????

A MECOA .46 runs with FX or a TT 46 for lots less $49 with trade in or $69 without. Add a $14 Tower muffler and it sings.

If ultimate performance is important then It's time for a Jett!

It would be nice if the MECOA did Francis, but it just doesn't run with the AX or TT -- & it really isn't very close. With the Tower muffler it still can't match either the AX or TT when they are wearing their stock mufflers -- closer to be sure, but still not there.

I've had all three at the same time (I still have a MECOA 46 Tomcat & several TT 46 Pro's, but I no longer have the 46 AX) so I know from whence I speak. Nor is the MECOA even close in user friendliness. Too bad -- I bought in to the cheap-but-just-as-good idea myself. It works OK -- identical in performance to a LEO 46 Pro, but it ain't no TT or AX.
