dude that looks like a radiator hose to me. If you run the car with the radiator hose disconnected very very bad things will happen and you will have just lost about 5000 dollars.

im not sure about the two on the left though, but im pretty sure the one on the right is a radiator hose. Not positive though.

i think that one actually feeds the airpump (appears to in the pic). the other one i see is the hose that connects to the blowoff valve.

The left hose is BOV, the middle hose is CRV, the right hose is from air pump to add air at idle. The only thing that will happen if you run the car is you will hear your bov and crv releasing boost and you will hear your air pump honk/moo.

Why do you ask?

EDIT: actually on second look, the middle one does not look like the crv, possibly a coolant hose like the others suggested? Damnit, I can't verify because my FD is in the shop right now....

the left hose is your CRV which is for blowing air off when the second turbo is spooling, the middle one is for the excess air that is generated by the air pump to come out, it makes a mooing sound but i see u ahve a muffler thingy connected to that, and the third ne is your air pump intake hose, i woudl worry about that one sucking crap in since u can damage teh air pump and other things if you run it like that, as for others its fine. here is a pic of what mine looks like right now

Not normally a critical one... but clean that frigin' engine bay... the cleanliness of an engine bay reflects on the care and pride you put into your ride.

Look at me ryhymn and sh*t!

And as stated before.... why even bother running it unless you HAVE to. My couple bucks...

edit --- just looked at the air filters again.. even if you don't clean the rest of it, clean those damn airfilters! Looks like you been ralley racin' bro.
