I'm probably not doing this right, can't find much on alternative seats for my 914 on this site. Anyway lets start afresh, I find it strange for a car that can really corner well that the standard seats do not hold you anywhere near firmly enough. I would like to upgrade to something not TOO expensive and that will fit into the car with not too much hassle, any recommendations? Yes I know its a bit of a crime but I don't feel that I can really drive the car to its full advantage as it stands or sits!

Not a crime at all! The regular seats are not all that well suited to the kind of cornering these cars can achieve. There are some sport-purpose seats out there that look correcting and fit fine. I have a pair of Konig seats I just did and they are for the slimmer guy but hug amazing. Those can get pricey though but not as bad as Scheel which can cost as much as 5k each. Here is an eBay seat I see that looks great and this craftsman is awesome:
