Default Should I run a larger capacity oil pan?

Hi I'm building my 84mm lsvtec 12.1 compression and I was wondering if I should run a larger oil pan? What benefits will I get from a larger capacity oil pan? If none then I rather just use the stock one. Any info would help please I don't want to mess up an expensive build.
