It opens the intake to the engine and the exhuast, to allow more fuel and air into and out of the engine faster. Similar to a cam on pissed-on engines. More air/fuel in, More exhaust gases out!

Basically, as others have said, intake and exhaust ports are opened up. They can be enlarged in two ways. First, the interior capacity can be enlarged, this allows more air flow to go through them. Second, the shape of the port can be changed. This is the same as changing cam timing. Longer the port is open, more air gets in=more power.
