That looks like your AC hoses.

Most 13's and up 1.8's have a additional emissions air pump.

I think more people just leave the hose disconnected

That is an AIR pump. It is used to put extra air into the exhaust pre cat to help with catalyst warm up and light off. It is used in states that have stricter emissions, think California emissions.

how does it directly effect my engine if i were to leave it un-attached. and how does it effect the cai

 

[mitdr774]

If you leave it disconnected you might have a CEL and you also might not meet emissions standards for your vehicle.

how would i go about installing the CAI then? is it something that has to stay connected? if so does that mean i cannot have a CAI. or is it something that can be removed? if so how would i go about doing so? please help!

The K&N system comes with extra parts needed to make it work.... I am not sure about other brands.

Here is the intake: http://www.knfilters.com/mobile/mProduct.aspx?prod=69-4525TS

For another $140, you can get 2 tunes and the intake. One for the intake and one for stock... Super cheap in my opinion: http://www.wot-tuning.com/forums/store/product/2188-2012-chevrolet-sonic-18l-advantage/
