There are several CDI boxes out for the DS now. All of them are good.

1) Big Gun - Increase the rev limit by 1000 rpm and sells for around $230
2) Ron Wood Racing - No rev limit and sells for around $270-$300.
3) Alba - Same as the Ron Wood Racing CDI $300.
4) Graydon Proline - I think the Rev Limit is around 9500 on thiers
5) Vortex - $350-$400 - has ten curves all with various rev limits

I've got my old Ron Wood Racing one on EBAY righ now.

You can buy the fan directly from Spal.

Go to your dealer and buy the kit for mounting the fan on rubber bushings.
Will require doing some spot welding.
Installed fan with rubber bushings and have gone almost 2 years with no failure.

Also recently installed a inline cooler, and reduced fan running to only when hard in a tight woods.

i was told not to remove the thermostat because because it would lower the pressure in the cooling system which increases the chance of air pockets forming, which can create cylinder hot spots.
