What computer would you recomend to put on a 2000 ford focus zx3 turbo with cams ppistons and other mods

Most would agree, keep the stock ECU ( computer ). Just have it reprogrammed by someone who knows what they are doing. I'd use the SCT XCalibrator 2 for the task.

The stock computer can handle just about anything you want it to. Unless you plan on going loony with the engine and really want the ECU to control all sorts of aftermarket stuff, do what Randy said. Get it tuned with an SCT XCal 2 and leave it at that. SCT also makes the PRP or ProRacer Package which includes all the software and hardware you need to tune the factory ECU yourself.
