DFCO uses no fuel, but it does drain momentum from your car much faster then engine-off in neutral. Once your engine is warm, it's better to shift to neutral earlier and EOC instead of DFCO.

Power steering: I don't think anyone's done the clutch thing. But maybe there's a manual steering rack / gearbox that will fit your car?
