4.10's in an A4 can be a beast on the highway.. As for stall, I think the general concensus around here is 3600 minimum.

Not sure if your mind is set on 4.10's or not but people say 3.73's are a better gear to run. The 10 bolt can be setup better and seems to last longer with them ive heard.

As far as stall id say 3200 or 3600. If you get a good 3600 it shouldnt bother you too much.

Have you drivin any stalled autos? Id take one any day over a manual now, they are a blast. If i was road racing or auto cross I think I would stay with the 6 speed, but high stalls are fun from a stop. They really wake up how a car drives.
