Default Popping noise in front end ?

We have a popping noise on a stock 2004 Civic LX coupe. It sounds like the strut is shifting or binding. This happens when turning right or left. It doesn't sound like a CV joint. Any ideas or TSB's anyone knows would help. Thanks Dezrat

Theres not alot to look at to inspect all of the front end parts. Strut bolts top, and bottom (@ the control arm) is the car lowered? check to make sure the srping is in the perch where it belongs, if not, when you turn it will spin and pop. Inspect the CV boots as well tie rod ends...they won't make much noise though.
