Porsche Crest Braking

Ok I've heard conflicting stories and I am looking for clarification. When braking (for a panic stop) in a stick shift car, will your braking distances improve if you downshift during braking versus just mashing the clutch and brakes and having at it? i do a mixture of both techniques and was wondering if anyone had any real knowledge on what happens?
