No, he trimmed the sides, rewired and removed the cart slot connections area; making the board as small as it goes; however, he did not slice the board in half, as you put it. His system would be 139mm wide as that is the width you are left with when removing the side groundings. If you want a board smaller you need to slice the board itself, there is no other choice, and it probably won't work, although I intend to try it out.

This is what he did (link to his topic is at the bottom of the N64 forum page, BTW):

It looks like the height is 115-120mm as the expansion pack is poking out a bit.
