Default new clutch time!

My clutch is finally going out. I entered a burn out contest at a recent sport compact/import drag/show event and won! I won four new 205/50-R15 Sumitomo tires that I will mount onto my stock blades. Well, in the process of smoking my tires, I also smoked my clutch. I'm not mad though, cause although I have a JRSC on my gsr, the stock clutch lasted since last June, so that's pretty good for a stock clutch to last that long right? Well now it's time to start fresh. I want a new clutch and lightened flywheel. What is a good set up in your guys opinion. I was thinking like a 12lb. flywheel with like a stage 2 ACT set up or something. I want it to be driver friendly, so that one of my legs doesn't end up being more muscular than the other. Thanks. I am still only running 6psi on my set up. Soon to be 8psi or 10psi. Oh yeah, will a clutch actually help my 1/4 mile time? I mean I know now that it wouldn't do good since when I drive it now I can still smell the burnt clutch smell, and that event was like 4 days ago. My best time (with traction problems and not the best r/t) is 14.4 on 16" slips mounted on Yokohama AVS ES 100's. But with proper launching and traction would I get way better e.t.'s with an upgraded clutch and lightened flywheel as opposed to stock set up? Thanks again.
