The also said they would test hot tomorrow for free. Should I expect a difference from my 95, 100, 110, 110 numbers?

Let's hope so - those are really BAD numbers. That's rebuild time.

5 minutes is ok, you should really run it then let it cool down for like 10 mins then do the test. your numbers might be better, but I did a compression check cold and I got 170s and stuff when my engine was still kickin so I think your engine is toast, rebuild or find another 420A O_o

After 5 mins, the car is already warmed up to normal operating temperatures so I think that the test was pretty accurate. I don't think you can expect more than a 15 psi difference if you retest it.
