well you probably gain a lil bit of lowend by sticking the 2.4 cams in a 2.0 but you would lose probably most of all your power after 6500rpm which is the redline of the 2.4 so it would really kill the advantage that the 2.0 dohc has over a lot of engines... the 2.4 i know is rated at 150hp and around 150lb-ft which comes from the fact that it has almost a half liter of displacement then the 2.0 so it can have smaller cams and make the same amount of power and more tq then the 2.0... i would still like to see dyno numbers of before and after of a 2.4 one bone stock with 2.4 cams and balance shafts and one with 2.0 cams and without balance shafts i'm betting the differance is a lot bigger then most people relize... the biggest gain in would come from the fact of having the bigger cam and being able to spin that 2.4 up to the 7200 or maybe even farther.... where as with the stock 2.4 cams the power is going to start dropping before the stock redline at 6500 and continue to drop if revd past that... with the 2.0 cams it should still be building power past that...
