If you floor it does the transmission down shift and the revs go up? . Full throttle shifts should be close to 6,000 rpm. What you have described is a high gear ratio.

@ F_O_R, no it dont down shift. Its almost like its on limp mode. The gears aint slipping, no hiss on the turbo. It just doesnt go above 2500rpm. I pulled over twice, to let it rest on the 3rd rest the car was performing as normal.

I would have a transmission shop diagnose it. When you say no turbo hiss it could mean the turbo is seized up.
