Downshifting is still a part of engine braking. I can be almost to a stop before even touching the brake pedal. It does not mean that I take my revs to redline with each downshift though. Just let them drop normally and shift to match them. Probably never go much over 3500. I am not turning my nice car into a soap box racer freewheeling in neutral or clutched in every time I am slowing.
