Correct.
If you go from NQ right to reforged 109 you'll get the augment.
However, you'll have pay ancient currency on top of the REM pages if you go straight from NQ.
Seeing how the forgotten items are cheaper than the currency I would recommend jumping to +2 then to reforged if you still have the base piece.
The only difference already having the augment makes is you just have to pay 5 rem's chapters instead of 10 if it's not augmented.
