You're going to have to turn the rear 02 sensors OFF in the tune. Your handheld tuner can not do this for you.

Kurgan is right you must have the fwd O2s and need to trun off the rears. You will need that done in your tune.

You'd have to ask your mechanic about that. He'd need some tuning software that can upload a new tune via your OBDII port. Correct on the second sentence.

Won't hurt a thing. Their only purpose is to monitor cat efficiency.

Doubtful if your mechanic is going to have the capability to turn those off unless he's also a tuner.
