AWD adds ALOT of weight and parasitic loss compared to FWD or RWD. I know Subaru's lose about 30% of their HP to the wheels, i would assume the VW is about the same.
1/4 mile they will **** up a 1.8t

1.8s are doing mid-high 15s stock
i met up with the guy who has the r32 up here at e-town...went 14.3 BONE stock
Yeah thats correct, 1.8t stock is pretty slow. I have a friend with a modified (exhaust, chip, up and down pipes, 21 psi max boost) Jetta 1.8t, and he was able to do a traction limited (like a 2.6 60') 14.7 @ 98 mph at island.
