Noise in front while turning???

Like the title says, I am getting a noise in the front only when i'm making a turn and accelerating. the noise is an intermittant, rythmic sound (crunk... crunk... crunk...) from the outer wheel. the noise will stop mid-turn if i stop giving it gas. It also changes depending on the speed of my car and if i'm barely moving it doesn't make any noise at all. I searched and came up with a list of possibilities, however I'm hoping someone out there can narrow it down for me (I don't have access to a jack to figure out which part it is exactly)

Any and all help is appreciated greatly.

Sorry for not mentioning that, yeah I am lowered on Tein H-Tech's with Illumina struts (on the car for about 2 years) and i bought raxles and got them installed less than a year ago. The CV joints was my first thought but the boots are not torn or damaged that I can see.
