My turbo waste gate has crack. Is the 1st-racingau billet turbo better than OEM? Will it pass smog with turbo upgrade in California?

Should I use this turbo for my 2013 LT 1.4 rs CRUZE 25201063 or 55565353 ? Rock auto's fitment table below states it fits however GM s table below states its for sonic. I purchased its on its way. Or should I buy the 55565353 from GM parts table?
