I don't know much about ITB IRL, but from what I can guess, you are essentially shortening the path of air to the engine substantially and thereby being able to feed the engine more air at high RPM (at the expense of maybe losing torque down low). Longer intake tracts usually benefit torque (search for the Crawford Power Blocks for a better idea) at the expense of higher RPM power.

Noob question time. Ready?
If the inlet diameter and length are the same how do itb generate more power? I get responsiveness, not the power increase.
