More efficient exhaust gas scavenging during the exhaust stroke leaves more room in the cylinder for a bigger (larger) fuel/air charge on each intake stroke. More fuel & air = more pressure = more power. Torque and horsepower can be increased w/o an increase in RPMs. This is a gross over simplification of course but I think it is roughly the idea.
