The correct term is auxiliary ports, and they are part of the 6-Port Induction (6PI) system. They are closed at low rpm to increase port velocity (better mixing and atomisation of the fuel for improved performance) and open at higher rpm for allow the engine to breath better.
Many other cars run systems that have basically the same effect. Variable valve lift systems like Honda'S V-TEC and Mitsubishi's MIVEC are obvious ones, but there are other's like the system on older multivalve Nissan's that used a butterfly valve to close one of the two intake ports at low rpm.
