Cheapest light seats are prob kirkly or what ever it is, there alloy drag seats are full of flared holes so look cool and weigh around 4kg each I belive., full carbon ones can be found from something stupid like 2.5kg

Drives
-Ford S-max Mk2 Ecoboost
-Rover 100 VVC #2 - track project

Searching is all you need on TurboMinis

I have Cobra Imola seats in mine. I chose them as they were at the time the lightest composite racing seat under £300 at ~8kg each

I have these available for sale, though one is an Imola 2 the other is an Imola S, they look similar, but the moulding is a different shape. Only reason i'm getting rid is because I'm fitting Lotus Elise seats instead, for a road car.

When you say you have Recaros, I guess you mean the lazy boy standard ones they fit other vehicles as standard.
Recaro are known for making the lightest seats in motorsport, but it comes with the price tag.

For many reasons, it looks pimp, it's lightweight, it makes the toilet faster and increases midrange torque on the flush *tongue*

You'd need a carbon fibre flushpipe to make the flush faster..
