Yes it will "Split" the gears, but if it won't split them "PROGRESSIVLY" then all you're adding is an OD box that will go from direct to OD & back again.
Also remember that the GV box is very small & uses it's own lube reservoir, not the trans lube & there's no way to cool it.
Not bashing GV units but it's a lot of $$$ to spend & not know the answers.
If you are asking if it will do this...

1st
1st OD
2nd
2nd OD
3rd
3rd OD

It won't do that in automatic mode, but it is fully capable of doing that with manual control.

If that isn't what you mean, then please explain "progressively".
