there isn't a best ratio of torque and power. You must find the ratio for your application because it depends if you are going to use this as a 1/4 mile car(low torque, high bhp) or a hill climb car(high torque.low bhp).
My opinion: more power of either type is better!

What is better a high gear ratio or a low gear ratio?
It depends on what you need - if you want lots of speed no power on the bottom end you go with the high ratio - if you want lots of torque on take off and lots of pulling power you take the low gear ratio.
How fast will you go with just a differential and no transmission?
It would depend on the differential gear ratio and engine horse power/torque.
Why diesel engine generates more power than a petrol engine?
Higher compression ratio, therefore it develops far more torque which equates to pulling power.
What is the use of power and torque in a car?
Power and torque are words used to describe the strength of the engine. Torque is basically how good the engine is at getting the wheels turning at all, but doesn't say anything about how fast they can be turned. Power, horsepower (HP) or kW (kiloWatt) is sort of a combined value of turning strength and turn ratio. High torque is good when first getting moving, but eventually it's the power value that will tell you how strong the engine is.
How is torque related to power?
Torque is the cars power, horsepower is only the rate at which the torque is produced.
Has skil power tool quality improved?
Skil power tools have the best price/quality ratio
What do you mean by torque weight ratio of an indicating instrument?
torque/weight ratio of an instrument indicates sensitivity.if a pointer is having less weight, it will be having high torque/weight ratio so that even for a very small deflection pointer starts moving and indicates measured value.
How the speed of a vehicle is related to engine speed and how tha vehicle speed is affected by the engine torque and gear ratio?
A smaller number as a gear ratio means more speed. Higher ratios have higher torque and less speed. The size of the engine just determines hp and tq for that engine unless it is upgraded. The gear ratio and engine determine the vehicles top speed and acceleration. More torque means more power therefore more acceleration.
Is Decibel is the unit of power ratio?
It can be the power ratio. If you measure voltage or sound pressure it is not the power ratio.
What is the difference between horse power and RPM and does RPM measure torque and if not how is torque measured?
DynoRpms is revolutions per minute. How many times the engine turns a complete cycle. Torque is measured at the rear wheels(if were talking about a rear wheel drive car). Torque is the true power of an engine. If you have alot of horse power and low torque, the working power of the engine underload will be awful. The best way to measure and only true way is to Dyno the engine
What meninges of Torque?
If you mean "what does torque mean", then it means it's the amount of twisting power your tires will have. Horse power is speed and torque is strength. Torque is like leverage, the bigger the throw on a flywheel, the more torque you have ( meaning more towing power or getting going power).
What happens to torque when something rotates faster?
When ever you attach a gear with less teeth to a gear with more teeth, thus increasing your gear ratio and the speed in which the gear with less teeth rotate, the amount of torque in your gear combination decreases. This can also be expressed as a ratio, which happens to be the inverse of a gear ratio, meaning if your gear ratio was lets say... 1:5, the ratio for the amount of torque is 5:1, meaning you receive five times less the amount of torque, to increase your speed five times as fast.
