Jim is right also.

As you can see there is a relationship between prop pitch and rpm's as far as torque is concerned. You need to find the correct combination of both pitch and RPM's to lower the torque. But you will not be able to make it any lower than where those two variables intersect as the two variables change.

Ouch... My head is hurting now!
