If anything, the base model ILX should be packing the 2013 Accord Sport's 189 hp, 182 lb/ft 2.4 liter Earth Dreams engine with the choice of CVT (though I'd actually prefer to see the 6AT) or 6MT out of the Accord Sport. Of course, this also means that Honda/Acura will need to go back to the drawing board for a performance version of the car since an ED 2.4 equipped ILX would probably be as quick, if not quicker, than the current 2.4 "Performance" version of this car.
