Blown Clutch at under 11,000 miles

I'm not sure how this happened nore do i really care at the moment.
Im going to be ordering a new clutch tonight or tomorrow. Im thinking of getting a clutchmaster stage 3. Should i get a flywheel while i'm at it. Is there any othe suggestions? Where can I get a good clutch flywheel combo deal?
I would normally do more reserch before buying a product but time doesnt allow it this time. I may eventually be boosting the G but that also might be wishful thinking.

I had a RSX S and when that cluch went I put in a Exedy S2 clutch flywheel and LSD It added alot to the enjoyment of driveing. Im not a total noob to aftermarket drivetrane stuff.

Please help

-Luke

Depending on your driving style you may need a new flywheel anyway. The best price I found for the oem one was $817 so I went with a UR flywheel when the dealership replaced my tranny (but I had 46k miles).
