If the noise is only when you turn or accelerate hard it is most likely a half shaft joint has gone bad.
To check, lift the front of the car and place it on jack stands. Reach up and grab the center shaft and push and pull on it (side to side motion). There should only be marginal side to side play.
Also look at dust boots at the joints to see if they are ripped open or torn.
