The local elevation is approximately 2,000 feet ASL.  I do not know what
method his ECU uses for pressure measurements.  The meter I observed was a
mechanical boost gauge, not electronic.

It is my understanding that a Bosch pressure transducer reads absolute
pressure not relative pressure.  Thus manifold pressure, as far as the ECU
is concerned, is unrelated to barometric pressure.
