You should be aware the the 3-step E6 process is not recommended for... see 
below:

Caution: Both Kodak and Fuji do not recommend processing Lumiere, Elite, 
Velvia, Sensia, Provia and other tabular grain-type films in any three-step 
E-6 type chemicals. For these films, or any critical work, JOBO recommends 
using the six-step E-6 process (see above). For some amateurs and small 
volume professional photo processors, the three-step chemical may produce 
acceptable results. However, the color balance may not be optimal, and the 
complete clearing of residual silver in the film may take longer in the 
bleach-fix step than the recommended times.
