my suggestion, get the adjustable cam gears installed all together if u don't already have them because removing the cam gears and reinstall them is part of the installation of the cams.
installing cams on a focus is not hard, u just need to know the steps (e.g. follow a write up), i've done it myself.
i've got the crower stage II and kent cam gears tuned... been in the car for a little more than 2 years.
they are good, good smooth idle (just a little rougher than stock), good torque and hp (mine was 146hp/141tq with some other basic bolt ons and it was with a NON-hi-flow cat)
from what ppl said, the FR/crane stage II will give lower power compared to the crower stage II. Cat cams are good in power but they have rough idles. (note that i've never tried them, i just got these info from other ppl)
also, steeda cams are the same as FR/crane cams!
if i were to choose again, i'd go for cat cams for the power, and raise the idle to 950-1000rpm to avoid the rough idle (mine is set to 850rpm now and idle is perfect already with crower IIs)
