I knew that had to have had something to do with it. Just bad flow at the edges i guess.

Cut your muffler off, and see if it is plugged.  That thing has been submerged a few times.

Think maybe the stock manifold is to small ?

I doubt it's too small.  You've used it before without a problem.  I've had mufflers clog.  I really think that might be it.
