So i keep reading about long stroke cranks and i am wondering what difference does it make having one ? Is it a better power output ,does it up the cc or is it crap and not worth doing ?

On what motor?
Reading previous threads it'll make T5s into fire breathing monsters!

Just did mine a couple of weeks ago, 1st impressions are its got lot more pull bearing in mind it had lots anyway. Previously I had 19lb torque and 22 hp I got no idea what it got now.
feels different in lots of ways bearing in mind I'm trying a new bgm type clutch too

But what is it meant to achieve by doing it ? does it increase cc or what ?

Yes, it increases the 'swept volume' by increasing the amount that the piston travels.

yes it does increase CC (cubic capacity) and therefore it should also help to increase torque and power
