This technique came about years ago when the transmissions were scncro in big trucks---It was adapted to race cars so that you could use engine braking to help with decelleration for turns--today with modern brakes and scycro transmissions there is no need for it
set your brakes up balanced for max decel and put the trans in the gear you want to leave the corner in
The risks of unbalanced decelleration far outweigh any consistent improment of lap times most drivers would get.
A good seat with proper orientation to the steering wheel and pedals and a harness at the proper angles will yield better, more consistent laps
