Default Kingtech K180g Vs K210G, why buy a 180?

I am in the market for a turbine to replace my P180RX for my skymaster mig. I havent flown the mig yet so I am not sure if the P180RX was enough or not.

I am looking at the kingtech, I've owned a couple and had decent success with them.

Looking at the K180 and K210, Is there a reason to even consider the 180G?
-The K210 puts out more thrust
-The K210 is lighter
-The K210 has a CNC compressor
-Fuel consumption is about the same (19.22 oz/min vs 20.8 oz/min)
-Cost is basically the same
-Same size can

What am I missing here? Maybe its the price tags that are throwing me off, they seem out of proportion?

I am not saying the 180 is overpriced or worthless Im just asking if I'm missing anything here.
One last question, I noticed dreamworks gives a store credit when buying a turbine, which is highly attractive. When they have run their black friday sales (10-15% off) do they still give the store credit during those sales? Its all about timing and getting the best deal.

If someone has a deal let me know.

Thanks!
