Any specs on MC diameter? Pedal ratio would also come into play so there might not be a 1 to 1 SBC / Vac boost correlation.
The u tube vid won't work for me because I'm on a slow connection.

While the multiplication is still there, the small fluid volume doesn't push the caliper piston far or hard enough before reaching maximum travel. It is a very undersized MC. Really, it's meant to be used only once. It's there to stop the car at the moment the SBC fails, and MB assumes at that point you'd call a tow truck and have the SBC repaired. It's like a handbrake.
