Flame Trap Question

It prevents an explosion in the crankcase should the engine backfire. A turbo engine does not have one. Check volvospeed.com (Bay 13) for photos. It's in the large hose going from the air cleaner to the throttle body, kind of a pain to remove as it's on the back side. PLaces like FCPGroten sell them for $1-2.00. Get your order together of all the other stuff you'll need (filters, plugs, wires, dist cap etc) and order it all at the same time to spread out your shipping cost.
