How do you increase exhaust sound?

Consider putting on a performance muffler, cold air intake, turbocharger, straight pipe exhaust, or aftermarket exhaust if you have the money.
Why do v8 supercars backfire?
As is the case with many supercars, backfiring often occurs when the driver shifts up a gear and takes their foot off the gas pedal. This leads to a moment of rich fuel mixture reaching the engine. This fuel mixture burns incompletely, and some fuel enters the exhaust system where it burns, causing a backfire.
