Twin Turbo Tunning Problomes
I work for Maverick Motorsports, (sandmaverick.com) we just built a twin turbo LS2; we also just purchased HP tuners software. The problem is this: Whenever you just put it to the floor, or even ease into the throttle to fast, it blows the blow off valve off and the waste gates, then looses all boost, and falls on its face because of all of the extra fuel. If you have any possible verdict as to why this is happening, it would be greatly appreciated!

Umm. Does not sound like a tuning problem to me, keep the wastgates closed and the boost up.. Kidding. What PSI are you trying to stay at?
Is the Wasegate blowing off air the MAF has read? If so there's 1 of your problems, I'm sure there are many other factors...
Need more info.

It sounds like the BOV isn't setup right for one. It should be a single vaccum line going from the intake manifold to the bov...The only time it should open is when the throttle body closes, and there is a higher pressure in the piping than there is in the intake manifold. It shouldn't open when it hits boost.
The waste gate will open if it thinks it's getting the amount of boost the spring is set for(unless you bleed the boost line so it stays shut longer). That should be a single line going from the compressor housing to the WG actuator, with a tee in it if you have a boost controller.
Hugger...If his wastegate is blowing off any air from any part of the intake setup, there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with the turbo setup. Wastegate bypasses exhaust from before the turbo and dumps it into the downpipe so the turbo stays at that RPM and boost level.

What size turbos/gates??? If the turbos/gates are too small then you will have boost creep. The ls2 motor will flow a lot of cfm.
