If you figure a 5-7 second break even point, then it is worthwhile. I gain 5-10 MPG on the highway doing P&G with EOC. I gain 4 in the city if I EOC once or twice a trip. Usually just to my house (about a mile) and to my parking spot at school (1/4 mile). So to me, it's worth it. With an auto trans, you need to make sure it is safe to EOC before you do it. Forget the starter, worry about your trans.
