The rev limiter kicks in a 13.9k. It never 4-strokes because it's leaning out at high rpm, which is why you can't tune it and why it revs like it does.

The purpose of strato is to delay the arrival of the fuel charge until just before the transfers close. If you imagine having that set up so the mixture is perfect and arrives just before the transfers close, and you somehow increase the rpm further, then the full charge will not get there in time and it will begin to lean. It doesn't matter how big the carb is or how rich you try to make it if the charge does not have time to get in there after waiting for the air to clear the transfers.

This particular saw has completely independent timing for the strato air intake and the fuel intake, so you could get them out of balance fairly easily.
