I flashed the boot loader of the american moto maxx to my turbo thinking I could maybe unlock on moto's website but it said not allowed.My number version of boot loader changed with no I'll affects to my phone.Is there some way that an unlock could be exploited from the maxx's boot loader?

No, the Turbo and Maxx bootloaders are nearly identical. Flashing one to the other would not affect anything in regards to unlocking (although I'm surprised it booted at all). The parts verified by the unlocking process are not in the bootloader, so if Motorola really really wanted to, they could essentially 'flip a switch' and allow bootloader unlocks (It's actually much more complicated than that).

turbo with maxx bootloader.

Thank you for your reply,I was just experimenting to see if it would work and of course it didn't. Likewise I thought it wouldn't boot but my phone is fine. I flashed all partitions but get error about system invalid signed image.
