Default Eboost 2 reading low

My eboost is reading low and there's no pinches/kinks in the hose. I hooked up a mighty vac to it to apply pressure and at 5" vacumm it reads 2"--at 20" its about 15" --and 27" its 18-19". I saw around 8 psi on the eboost and 10psi on another gauge.

I set it back to factory defaults but it didn't make a difference. Is there someway to calibrate it? I downloaded the 30+ page manual but it doesn't have anything related. I'm going to chop off all the plastic line next and just leave it a few inches long.

Has anyone ever had to have one calibrated?

Are you positive the MV is accurate?

I'm not sure if your asking millivolts or manifold vacumm. But I'm sure the amount of vacumm that its seeing is higher then what its showing. My other boost gauge shows about 21-22" at idle, then I took it out of the car and hooked it up and applied pressure with a handheld vacumm pump and had the same readings.
