Trans women with fully suppressed testosterone and on estrogen on par with cis women after 2 years, or worse off. This was a common policy based on data, that has since been rolled back due to transphobia. Anyone fully on Testosterone has a physical advantage, but it goes away over time.

I see. I get that, but is there evidence to suggest that the traditional "advantages" men have over women in areas like strength, speed, etc level out with suppressed testosterone and increased estrogen? Obviously, things like height don't go away. Neither does physical size. So what is 'on par'?

Yes the data all points to endurance, strength, O2 capacity etc all adjust to cis female levels. Bone density moves more slowly but eventually equalizes. Height is mostly permanent (most people shrink slightly).
