One other question, does in not go over 6k under load only or it won't free rev there either? In the video it definitely sounds like it comes onto a fuel rev limiter.

speed, gear, or load level don't matter. Full throttle, or gentle throttle, same beef.

Will hit the issue in neutral as well, rolling or at rest.

That's not a fuel rev limiter, that is an ignition rev limiter.

That's a software problem.
