Been running this pump on my RODI system for about a year seeing 80psi. Changed my pre filter and carbon blocks and now only 40psi. Any ideas on what could have changed?

Maybe a bad filter? Run the line from the water source directly to the booster pump and see if your pressure goes up.
 
Kinda tried something similar in that I removed the carbon blocks and pre-filter but no change.
I would check all your hoses and fittings to make sure no debris got in there restricting the flow . Don’t know how u could check inside the pump itself. Maybe u could back flush the out to membrane line and see if anything comes out the filtered in side.
