I think you should put in the actual 8.x at the next 2 fill ups. Not sure how it came up with 55 other than something to do with whatever mode it happened to be in when you transferred between cars.
I have recalibrated 2x since I bought mine. The initial time took 3 tanks, and the others just 2. (loaned it out to a friend) The MPG difference when not calibrated has only been about 7% for me.

I'm assuming it came out to be 55 gallons because the fill up information was never entered and the gauges never reset.
