I recently got my turbo rebuild due to burned bearings caused by oil issues. Is there a upgrade to this or stock is best solution.

Are you talking about the block that threads into the corner of the head and feeds oil to the turbo?

What can cause no oil to turbo? This an aftermarket garret turbo that’s been on this car for 4/5years and just did a rebuild and balance on both ends and as a unit. It also still seem like it’s starving for oil. How can I check if my turbo is getting oil. Or just change out oil pressure switch for new one.

Our braided oil line replaces everything (including the block fitting).
The pressure switch doesn't effect oil flow, it just reads pressure.
If you want to know if oil is flowing to the turbo, you'll need to remove the feed line from the turbo, unplug the coil, hold the throttle to the floor (to enter flood clear mode so it shuts off injector flow) and then have someone crank it over while you verify oil is flowing (into a container of some sort of course).
You're supposed to replace the oil line when you replace the turbo.

I also replaced the line just wonder if oil block or switch were the problem. When you say unplug coil are you saying at wire or harness?

Unplug harness from coil. It's just to keep the engine from running while no oil is going to the turbo.
