I'll give you a little more.
Two forms you can go with, turbocharger or supercharger.
Turbo uses the out rushing exhaust to spin a compressor wheel which feeds or boost's the air entering the intake.
A supercharger uses a compressor that's driven by a belt off the crank which boosts the air entering the intake.
As frostbit stated, more air, more fuel in the cylinders = more power. Significantly more power. Each has it's advantages and dis-advantages. I have DDM's supercharger kit and love it. Poke around some more, pro's and con's of each have been debated here many times  .
