wrut are you asking? do you have CELs? if you have CELs, you will need to bypass them, i.e. defouler or kpro

b-series and k-series do not operate in the same way, what may work for B may not work for K and vs versus, resetting the ecu may provide a temporary fix but will not solve your problem, as stated before in my other post you will need defouler or kpro to bypass

yes you will need to disable the secondary o2 sensor. its simple second o2 only is basicly and emission thing, to make sure cleaner air is leaving the exhaust. i think it does not affect the way the car runs. i heard of ways to get rid of the cell by letting the o2 sensor like, hang it somewhere it can get clean air but i think most o2 sensors need to sense heat to work. but what i would do is just got get k pro. that the right way to do it.
