On the 200q20v, the proportioning valve is located driver's side,
linked to the rear suspension.  Can't miss it- box with brake lines
and a lever w/spring attached. I believe other type 44 quattros are
similarly set up.

I do recall seeing something in the (100/200) Bentley about
lateral-acceleration sensitive valves, but I think that was only on
the FWD models?
