Oh! Me bad!! I see what you are doing.
I remembered when you said ".. I think I'll just use fourier transform method because it returns symmetric data (which is correct)
So, use Signal, and remove your leading Abs.
SetOptions[{Fourier,InverseFourier},FourierParameters->{1,-1}];
v=RandomInteger[{-9,9},8]
{-2,5,-4,-1,2,7,-5,-3}
ListCorrelate[v,v,{1,1}]
{133,-28,-48,-44,108,-44,-48,-28}
InverseFourier[Abs[Fourier[v]]^2] //Chop
{133.,-28.,-48.,-44.,108.,-44.,-48.,-28.}
%% == %
True
