The key to understanding why both cards are discarded is to look at the wording. Independent of everything else the card does, it says this: "After you perform a SLAM action, discard this card."

So you have Burnout SLAM #1, which says  "After you perform a SLAM action, discard this card."

And you have Burnout SLAM #2, which also says  "After you perform a SLAM action, discard this card."

Then you perform a SLAM action. Card #1 triggers, discarding because you performed a SLAM. Card #2 also triggers, discarding because you performed a SLAM action. If it matters, you can do them in any order, but you still discard both.

Neither card says "after using ths card, discard it". Rather, they both trigger independently "after you perform a SLAM action". Even if you could equip two of these on a K-Wing, and it used its native SLAM, both these cards would then discard; the difference is the K-Wing would still have the SLAM action it started with, while the Lancer wouldn't (it starts with none).
