I would think after 4.10's in an A4 it would shift into 4th around 100mph, mabey less.

I have 4.10's with an A4. Times are in my sig. With 16" BFG DR's (25.5" dia.) I cross the line at ~112 mph and ~6100 rpm in 3rd gear.

Yep, they're 4.10's for sure.....trust me, I counted the teeth (41 and 10
).....do the math

Are you sure that your speedo was recalibrated properly?
Check out this gear calculator and plug in an A4 w/3.73's. 3rd gear should be good 'til at least ~115 mph (I remember my car pulling that last year with 3.73's).
Either A) your speedo is programmed wrong, B) the tach, speedo, or a combination of both read too high and/or too low, or C) your transmission or torque converter are slipping really bad if you're losing out on that much speed!?
