The reason I made them this size, is because after Babylon 5 allot, I noticed there Star Furies have large Manuering Jets for max Turns and Braking, so I thought I would do the same...

Big jets are good. Big jets close to the central axis ... not so much.
I'd keep the size (they look good) but they have to move out from the center fuselage.
It's not just about the thrust the jets can produce, but the leverage they can exert. Assuming two fighters with jets of equal power, the one with them out on the wing is going to be radically more maneuverable.
Just a function over form argument, tho.
