The big part above your engine is your intercooler. Box to the right is the airfilter.
No idea about the boot thing, might be the flux capacitor... ;)

We need a face palm emoji!
Aircon will be in a cylinder/canister, the inter cooler is the big flat silver thing above your engine but under the huge plastic cover with the Mazda badge and 2.3 disi on it.

 The intercooler is to cool the air entering the engine. I had to try and explain this to my girlfriend a while back. How long have you had the car? What have you owned previously?

Take a picture. add arrows and post so ee know what you're talking about.
Nothing wrong with having no technical nouce. just leave any servicing and mod work to others. given your current level of understanding you should not do anything yourself. not a criticism, we all need to learn!
