According to Larry Kaufman's claim, + 800 rating difference is equivalent to one piece handicap. (He tested dozen of games of Komodo vs Title players) So, 3600 rated engine can give one piece handicap to 2800 rated GM. 2000 rated player can give one piece handicap to 1200 rated player.

@rychessmaster1 beat me down a piece but our rating difference is 1000 so it doesn't really count. 2400 with piece handicap? not sure but I'd say its even for a 2000. (1800-1900 players aren't that good at all)
