Drivetrain loss is significant in an AWD car, and mine was no different, but in my normal mod-spirit (OEM+), my car ran very well with just an exhaust and professional tune. The car ran 7.9 in the 8th (I don't have a local ¼) with countless 1.6 60-ft times in the 36,000 miles I had it, and I never had any issues other than a turbo oil-feed line crack, which was created by the down-pipe hanger cracking, causing excess movement. A quick fix anyway.
And BTW, my 0-60 was good enough to best almost any car at the track, and on the street...even with the impossibly short 1st gear.

The car has had 3 owners, and is just over 95K miles at the moment...without a rebuild...and on the stock clutch.
Careful with your Subaru racism, NASIOC has colored your judgement, and not in the best of ways.
