The transmission will stay in a lower gear than usual. Keeping engine rpm higher allowing more power strokes in the same period of time and increasing power to the wheels.

It can also change the behavior of valves, timing, fuel/air mixture and in some designs compression ratio. For a less efficient but more powerful result.

The exact changes will vary depending on the design.
