Ahhhh - now the problems start to come out - the second turbo is spooling too fast for the stock PCM settings.

Assuming all of your wastegate lines are stock and working correctly; an Apexi PFC or the like is going to work way better than a BC. A BC cannot take anything away - only add.

Sorry man.

Really?? I was under the impression that it took over the waste gate control, so that you could change their function. I've seen people who have set them up to run 8psi on the stock twins. Now I am thoroughly confused.

I am not an expert by any means; I have only removed 'em on the FD myself.

I know you can set them to run parallel; and it stands to reason you could sever all of the solenoids that control the wastegate and plumb it all through the BC... I am just not exactly sure how to do it wihtout running them in parallel.
