I'm curious: doesn't setting InvertBrakeAxis = true in input.ini help?
On my controller (MSFF) it inverts the reading (not that I actually need
it, but I've tested it)

You can also try to use DXTweak, check the "raw" range of your controller
and then manually enter the range in the right pane. There you can enter
"center" point explicitly (set it to average of min and max values). This
way you won't need any windows calibration. It worked for me (and I
couldn't make it work through windows calibration)
