Hi. The reason you are seeing this is because you aren't draining the pack stream. You should change it to drain right away like so:

var fs = require("fs");
var tar = require('tar-stream');

var fileName = "demo";
var pack = tar.pack();

// lets drain the stream right away
pack.pipe(fs.createWriteStream("output.tar"));

fs.writeFileSync(fileName, new Array(1674).join("X"), "utf-8");
pack.entry({ name: "specific-length.txt" }, new Array(13399).join("X"));

fs.stat(fileName, function (err, stat) {
    if (err) {
        return console.log(err);
    }

    var packOptions = {
        mode: stat.mode,
        mtime: stat.mtime,
        name: fileName,
        size: stat.size
    };

    var rs = fs.createReadStream(fileName);
    var entry = pack.entry(packOptions, function (err) {
        console.log("This happens");
        pack.finalize();
    });
    console.log("We pipe the stream here and expect a callback...");
    return rs.pipe(entry);
});

The reason you are seeing the issue using your file sizes is because the total size exceeds the default streams2 buffer size. Let me know if this makes sense to you.

Ahhh, that makes sense. That way you can keep pushing data through instead of having it pile up in RAM. Thanks for the quick response!
