No codes, car seems to drive fine, I tried to launch like I always do but the boost didn’t build up all the way. It built up to like 2/3 bars on the gauge then stop building and released the boost

I'd suspect the turbo as you indicate you have been doing this regularly and it wears down the turbo and the engine.
It might also be the blow-off-valve that releases the pressure too early/easily.
