1.88 there is expensive because you have to change the mainshaft to change to 1.88.

Gearing advice here assumes you have a 2.1 litre WBX motor. Powerful
diesels can use lower ring and pinion ratios than WBX. Powerful gasoline
engines (Subaru, Audi, 3.2L WBX) can let 4th gear drift to the slightly higher
than the recommended maximum number for row 30, column F of 75mph.

Make this number as low as possible by inputting a ring and pinion ratio at row 8, column G.
Make this number 70-75 depending on whether you want more ultimate top speed
(75) or to be able to go up steep hills better (70).
Make this number near to the OEM number of about 49-50mph. Not a critical number!
Experiment with this number so that it comes closest to the OEM 29.3mph by
inputting 1.88 or 2.06 at row 19, column D. If you are not a lot better off with the
1.88, then you can sometimes save $$ by sticking with your OEM 2.06.
