IMO, it’s implied that zombie sheev scales above ROTJ Vader:
“But the Force itself belied any perception of frailty, for a cloud of darkness and need swelled from the creature, along with power like Kylo had never before encountered.”
The phrase “the force itself belied any perception of frailty” implies that the power like Kylo had never before encountered is referring to the magnitude of Palpatine’s power. His power belied his frailty because it was so immense. Therefore:
TROS Zombie Palpatine>Prime Grandmaster Luke>ROTJ Luke=ROTJ Vader
Zombie Palpatine is stated to be weaker than ROTJ Sidious. The novel reveals the clone body of Sidious was unable to contain ROTJ Sidious Immense power.
If anything Zombie Sidious was getting Weaker and Weaker.
What Kylo actually meant is open for interpretation, Kylo even asked Sidious what could he give him. it implied that Kylo might have been Talking about a political thing.
No ROTJ Luke was not equal to ROTJ. This irrefutable when Vader defeated 4 mutated clones that was created from Luke's DNA, and Snoke Who Luke implied also has the same type of power as Sidious was made from Luke's DNA.
