except it will cook faster
This is my only concern, most people use so many minutes per pound, but by cutting it in half, i think it would mess up that system, guess just use a thermometer

DO NOT cut that turkey in half. It WILL mess up the frying time. One of the main reasons the frying is faster is because of the hot oil gets into the body cavity and frys the turkey from the inside and out.
If you cut it in half, you're only cooking it from the outside.
I've fried 20+ pounders, and they come out fine EXCEPT for the wings .... they can't take the temp for the hour+ frying time without turning into turkey cracklin.
Just need to make sure you gotta big enuff pot.
