I don't know if these numbers are even currently attainable, but beyond these values, they become incredibly inefficient and additional stat increases should go towards Willpower or +power instead. I'm currently working on combining the formulas to do a big picture analysis on how to distribute points to maximize damage.

These are about the same numbers I did also come up with.
But instead of using theoretical numbers, I did use actual Mods and Enhancements from the databases.
My CritRating value is somewhat lower, the Surge one a bit higher.
If you add ~200 Power to your calculations, you will notice an increase in damage maximum for coefficients around 2. Reportedly the main attacks of a Merc Bounty hunter (Tracer Missile and Unload) have coefficient values around 2 (one a bit below 2, the other a bit above).
Tech/Force-Power is only dependant on the used barrel/hilt in your weapons - there's no other way to increase that and can be seen as a constant value for max level gear (or as a simple variable, if you want to calculate for lower levels).

Edit: I just checked several Abilities. Most of the hard hitters use coefficients around 2ish. Some go to the values of around 3, some more to around 1.5, so this makes shifting the ratio to your desired maximum somewhat complicated and a "per skill" matter of calculation.

My conclusion to this is, to build your stats around your main attacks coefficients, as the Power/Surge ratio shifts quite a bit, when the coefficient has some other value.
