Man I can't say for sure. I can say at slower speeds yes, and that's because the 5th gear braking is normally about right to get up to the traffic and light. I know it scrubs of speed faster than coasting but it's also with zero fuel flow.
I started building a table from 55 to 75 that will show GPH and rpm's ever 1 mph. Steady on the free-way. I plan to build that in a spread sheet and plot it to see what it looks like at that magic Vtec 3400. It's not easy down here bacause of all the traffic. Guess I could go out at 5AM and get-er done
