Looking for the Best Skyline Engine Build in Need for Speed Heat?? We’ve got you covered, this guide lays out the real stats and times tested on two different tracks in the game. Check it out below
We all love the Skyline. It’s a symbol of Japanese sports cars and an icon for JDM lovers around the world. The Skyline has featured in nearly every Need for Speed game especially the games focused on street racing.
I was driving around in the Skyline the other night and was wondering what the best engine is. Instead of buying every engine and testing it, I decided to look it up online and I found an awesome YT vid by Militia Gaming. So I decided to do a write-up for it and present it here for you guys.

Skyline Best Engine
The best engine for the Skyline in Need for Speed Heat is the 592 HP Forged 2.6L I6. This engine came out on the top of the leaderboards on both track tests, Aerion and Aardvark. It was pretty tight on both runs. However, this engine was unbeatable regardless.
