Installing a engine kill switch will kill your transmission

You can't EOC (engine off coast) with a automatic transmission. The engine needs to be running in order to supply ATF from the internal pump to all the rotating parts so they don't burn up from lack of lubrication.

You can however EOC (engine on coast) and still get great MPG numbers.
