Just curious if i can use a boost brothers turbo kit currently on a 96-98 mustang with a 5.0 motor on a 99 cobra with a 4.6? I was thinking all i would need to do is modify the headers to fit my 4.6 4v engine, and then get my car "tune'd", any and all help welcome :)

Is it on a 96-98 with a stroked to 5.0 modular motor? Or is it on a 5.0 pushrod motor. Reason I ask is because I am not quite clear from your original post

I am gonna be brutally honest hear. If you don't even know what kind of motor comes in the 96-98 cobras, you prob shouldn't be looking into turbo kits just yet. Ford stopped puting the 5.0 in the mustang in 95. So if it still has a 5.0 and is 96 or higher someone did a motor swap and there is no way that thing is gonna work in your car. But like I said, do some research, get to know your car and it's history better and maybe start with some easier mods before going full turbo

As far as knowing what type of motor it was I wasn't sure because he was very vague on his Craigslist posting.

It doesn't matter if it was a cobra or not. 4.6 sohc and dohc motors came in mustangs from 96 on. The pushrod 5.0 last appeared in 1995.
