By ILR I presume you mean Permanent Residence confirmation following EEA3 application.

It will have no affect on your current Residence Card. In fact it will make your PR application (after 5 years) simpler (no need to provide tons of documents as evidence of treaty rights. Just the PR card).

EEA3 applcation is under the EU rules and provides a confirmation of PR status which is similar to ILR (which is under the UK rules). Getting EEA3 will not change your status and you will still be under the EU rules. Don't worry about the UK leaving the EU. Even if that happens, I don't see that affect people already in the UK.
