Ah yes...and then there's the calculated vacuum via the MAP and TPS sensor
values. ;)

Maybe.

No to your first question, and your second thought is correct. The
MAP sensor is a barometer which measures absolute pressure (Manifold
Absolute Pressure). A higher MAP reading means that the pressure is
higher, and therefore the vacuum must be lower.
