Default I think my CV joints have blown

I was driving to work this morning and noticed when I deaccelerated there was a "thump thump" noise that slowed as I slowed. It wasn't very prevalent under acceleration, but I could also hear it while turning, more to the left than the right. (thinking that the right CV joint is the culprit). I guess boost and autox finally have a toll on the axel system.

Any one else have any ideas?

sounds about right... clicking under acceleration while turned hard is the strongest indication for the outer joint. Clunking while going slow is normally the inner joint or the whole thing is worn...
