Are you looking to do the FES mod?

Mike, 

Is this a well known mod? Where did you hear about such a thing?

Does this make it a self-launcher of just an extender?

Recent video by Stefan Langer interviewing Schempp-Hirth, they do it now. I think sustainer only (claimed anyway).

The Discus 2 FES is not a self-launcher because the propeller does not have sufficient ground clearance on takeoff.
