Exclamation Boost gauge is reading more then 30 inHg! HELP

Hey so while I was driving around I looked down at my boost gauge and it was reading 30 inHg. I looked all over the engine bay to see if anything looked out of place. I can't find anything. Has anyone had this before? If so tell me what I should look for. Oh and when I press the accelerator pedal I reaches up to around 24 inHg. Also it's an AEM digital boost gauge.

Is is a mechanical or electric gauge? Mechanical has airline going into back of gauge. Electric has sensor that tells gauge what to display (no airline in back of gauge, only wires).

It's electrical. I'm thinking the sensor just went out of calibration because I was reading 8 inHg when the engine was off
