If you want to push slide film, you should push Fuji Provia. It works very 
well. Provia 100F one stop to 200, Provia 400F one stop to 800. The results 
look good, as if they were not pushed. With the two films you can get ASA's 
100, 200, 400, & 800 and they will all match in color balance and sharpness.

Provia ...F is good stuff.
