I'd just forge & machine a new steering arm myself. I've done it on lots of vehicles...just never a WDX. I've seen lots of drag links lengthened, shortened, bent, turned into adjustable length...just I think with the design of the PW drag link not being a typical balljoint style, I'd opt for raising the steering arm.
You could also add a spacer between the stock arm & the stock arm but the studs are the week link. I'd prefer a custom fabricated arm.
Here's a Dana 60 raised arm at the link below...similar just for our application.
I have no problem welding on my steering components. I wouldn't let many other folks weld on mine though :)
