Have you looked under the car to see if maybe you broke any of the suspension parts?

could always jack up the rear end and manually spin the tires, listen for clunking

could be a broken exhaust mount. That would cause noise when turning

im gonna say its more than 90% likely one of the upper control arms. i help 2 of my buddies just last week install new ones and they had the same noise. the part that houses the bushing is probably cracked. on their new ones before install i cut some sheet metal to close the open side of them and welded them up to help reinforce it.
