Dowshifting to bring the RPM's up, and use the engine as a brake, instead of the actual breaks.

It usually results in a badass sound, with backfiring etc.

People only practically engine brake where there are A LOT of downhill roads, the brakes not being enough...

I was somewhere on the Virgin Islands once on a cruise, and my wife and I took a taxi back to the ship... The driver used engine braking constantly, using the brakes only at the end of a stop to add more stopping power. This was literally a 20 minute drive with nasty traffic ALL downhill... Brakes used regularly would have become smoke and ashes otherwise.
