On a 5 speed Jetta, it seems when engaging the clutch the RPM's will raise slightly. The RPM's will also fall much slower than my other TDI. Now I need to hook this thing up to VCDS to get real numbers, but right now I'm assuming some type of over fueling is taking place. I'm wondering what specs in VCDS I should read to get the data I need?

How old is your clutch? What you are describing sounds to me like the clutch is slipping.
The clutch is basically brand new, less than 5,000 miles on it. It seems the clutch does not have an issue grabbing when you get on it.
When pushing the clutch in to change gears while accelerating the RPM's will raise maybe 25-75 before falling slow.
