It's idiotic to think you should deep fry a turkey in a garage.  I seem
to recall this from discussions about deep frying turkeys many years ago
on RFC:  aside from doing it outside away from buildings is the first
thing they need to do is fill the fryer with water.  Then dip something
equal to the size and weight of the turkey into WATER in the the deep
fryer, to determine the level of how much oil to add.  You know, so you
know it won't overflow when you use actual hot oil and lower the turkey
into the fryer.  It can be done, but most people probably shouldn't try
it.

 I'll never understand why people don't do it in a deep fryer or a big
pot.
