Will breathing every 3 strokes make me faster?

I am trying to condition myself to breath every 3 strokes instead of 2. Will this help make me a faster and more efficient swimmer? Are their any other benefits that I will receive from breathing every 3 strokes?

    Did a little more research. And from what I've read (not sure how accurate it is) professional swimmers mostly train with bilateral breathing to help keep their form solid. But when they race they breathe however they feel most comfortable. But they may opt to throw in a bilateral breath here or there to keep an eye on the competition on the other side of the pool.
