Stranded, please help.

I'm on my way home from out of town and I lost power. Turbo does not seem to be working. Have 64/65/13SS. Code P0299 boost in range low. What should I look for?

Make sure the connector to the MAP sensor is okay and check to see if the hoses to/from the intercooler are loose.

I just pulled over and checked my Smarty. It gave me the code. I did a search on here with my phone and found out that you can just clear the code. So, I cleared the code and everything worked fine for the rest of the trip. Did not see anything when I got home. I'll keep looking. Thanks guys!
