Be sure you know your transmission ratio, prop-hull clearance, ideal engine RPM, etc. before you rely on a simple calculation. This is a question that seems like it should have a simple answer but "...it depends on several other parameters.." so a simple answer could be wrong. If the Max-Prop allows, you might just change the pitch and see if the performance improves.
