I've certainly always read it as "augment using the normal roll the dice method". Means you can take big risks, which isn't possible with passion spirits.

A good house rule is to allow augments without rolling if the number desired is no more than would be gained from a passion spirit of the same might. In other words, "Magically Sharp Sword" 17 gives a +1 without rolling. +2 or better, you have to roll for.
