Default gsr cams in B16 or any other mix of cams in B16

I'm looking to swap out my Dizzy for a B16 (as the plan goes right now). I know that the cams are swappable among the b family. I have herd of people swaping in gsr, ctr, or itr cams. I want to know is this done for more power, a better vtec range or somthing else? I have also herd of people swaping in just one of the cams and leaving the other stock. Well to summ up what I am asking I would like to know what the benifets are of swaping out the cams of a B16 for other cams and wich swap would be better?

more power obviously

gsr cams arent going to make a huge difference. itr/ctr cams make a more substantial difference, but require upgraded valvetrain if you rev higher than the stock rev limit.

nope, not unless you mill the head like crazy or you don't set your timing right.
