Do you a way to modify EFI boot Loader and set something like

default =/dev/sda8??

There are two things you might attempt:
Download EasyUEFI and use it to adjust the boot order. This tool is pretty easy to use; just move the “Ubuntu” entry to the top of the list. If there are multiple entries, move one that refers to shimx64.efi, not one that refers to grubx64.efi.
Open an Administrator Command Prompt window (not the newer shell in Windows 10; the older classic Command Prompt) and type bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path EFIubuntushimx64.efi.
If these procedures both fail, you could try using an EFI shell and its bcfg command, as described here. Note, however, that you’ll need to disable Secure Boot to get the EFI shell to launch, and you’ll need to copy the shell program to a USB flash drive as EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi, then boot that drive.
If all of this fails, I recommend you return the computer for a refund,
