Thanks for all this input. I fully realize that engine braking, when not done right with throttle blips, will wear out synchros and the clutch.
However, throttle blips use fuel.
I'm really focusing only on whether downshifting in and of itself uses as much, more, or less fuel than moving the stick to neutral and using the brakes.
From what has been posted thus far, it would appear that it does not use more fuel due to the computers shutting off the injectors.
