A hypercharger basically shoves or "rams" air into your intake by funneling it through those two holes and trap doors.  By doing that it adds more horsepower due to the amount of air letting the engine breathe better and do it's thing.  It's like when you see those hot rods with super chargers back in the day that stick way up out of the engine or a "ram air" intake on cars and trucks like Mustangs etc.  That's the simple answer anyway.

My 03 800 had a hypercharger on it when I bought it, and other than looking decent, I cannot figure out exactly what this thing is doing - in particular the fins that open and close.  Why do they need to have those moving fins, and what is the purpose?

This bike came with a bunch of stuff on it that the first owner had put on.  I bought it from the second owner, and unfortunately he didnt have any of the stock parts :(
