Is there any difference between level 150 and level 160 item in stats wise? Like....

Level 150 item = +2 stats per stars Before 11 stars
Level 160 item = +3 stats per stars Before 11 stars

is this correct?

    As far as I can tell, all that matters is the amount of stars, not the equip level. stars 1-5 give 2 stats, stars 6-14 give 3 stats. I haven't gotten a 14 star item so I can't confirm that 15 stars is 3 stats, but I assume it is. Also, for whatever its worth, the +hp/avoid/acc/defense that you can get from starforce should go up with each enhancement at a certain point. And lastly, remember that item type will determine what you get for the starforcing, weapons give +w/m. att (as well as starforceable secondaries) as well as stats, so those are probably worth prioritizing.

    Does this apply regardless of the item level?

    yes, regardless of level this will apply.
    the only thing level does in starforce is dictate how many stars an item can have

    there is one more thing to add but it wont come into play very much unless you play on a normal server and is only for weapons, every 5 or 10 (dont remember which) attack/m att on a weapon will increase the attack/m att a star will give you.
